Abstract-The management of security and privacy protection mechanisms is one fundamental issue of future smart grid (SG) and metering networks. Designing effective and economical measures is a nontrivial task due to the following: 1) the large number of system requirements; and 2) the uncertainty over how the system functionalities are going to be specified and to evolve. This paper explores a unified approach for addressing security and privacy of smart metering (SM) systems. In the process, we present a unified framework that entails the analysis and synthesis of security solutions associated with closely interrelated components of a typical SM system. Ultimately, the proposed framework can be used as a guideline for embedding cross-domain security and privacy solutions into SG communication systems. Index Terms-Privacy, risk assessment, security, smart grid (SG), smart metering (SM).
The authors in REF proposed a unified security and privacy preserving framework (USaPP) to examine basic issues of smart grid security and privacy in an efficient and comprehensive way.
