Cyber security framework for Internet of Things-based Energy Internet

摘要

With the significant improvement in deployment of Internet of Things (loT) into the smart grid infrastructure, the demand for cyber security is rapidly growing. The Energy Internet (El) also known as the integrated internet-based smart grid and energy resources inherits all the security vulnerabilities of the existing smart grid. The security structure of the smart grid has become inadequate in meeting the security needs of energy domains in the 21st century. In this paper, we propose a cyber security framework capable of providing adequate security and privacy, and supporting efficient energy management in the El. The proposed framework uses an identity-based security mechanism (I-ICAAAN), a secure communication protocol and an Intelligent Security System for Energy Management (ISSEM) to certify security and privacy in the El. Nash Equilibrium solution of game theory is applied for the evaluation of our proposed ISSEM based on security events allocation. The formal verification and theoretical analysis show that our proposed framework provides security and privacy improvement for loT-based El. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
