LIVE SERVICE ANOMALY DETECTION SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING CYBER PROTECTION FOR THE ELECTRIC GRID

摘要

Provided is a method of improving security in an electrical grid network. The method includes configuring a lifecycle map associated with an operation in the electrical grid network, the lifecycle map including at least a start configuration, a final configuration, and a plurality of valid events arranged to link the start configuration and the final configuration, the start configuration and the final configuration corresponding to particular states of the electrical grid network. The method also includes monitoring at least one of messages and device configurations in the electrical grid network to detect one or more live events associated with the operation and comparing the plurality of live events to the lifecycle map to identify an anomaly in the live events.
