Abstract

The scope, scale, and intensity of real, as well as potential, attacks on the Smart Grid have been increasing and thus gaining more attention. An important component of the Smart Grid cybersecurity efforts addresses the availability and access to the power and related information and communications infrastructures. In this paper, we provide a holistic and methodical presentation of taxonomies and solutions for DoS attacks in the Smart Grid. The emerging threats of cybertattacks are raising serious concerns for many critical infrastructures. In this regards, The scope, scale, and intensity of real as well as potential attacks on the Smart Grid are on the rise and with devastating consequences. An important component of Smart Grid cyberse-curity efforts addresses the availability and access to the power and related information and communications infrastructures. In this paper, a holistic and methodical presentation of taxonomies and solution for DoS attacks in the Smart Grid is presented.
