However, the noise influence caused by the random process interrupts(RPIs) becomes an important factor of the power analysis attack efficiency, which will cost more traces or attack time. To address the issue, an improved method about empirical mode decomposition(EMD) was proposed. Instead of restructuring the decomposed signals of intrinsic mode functions(IMFs), we extract a certain intrinsic mode function(IMF) as new feature signal for CPA attack. Meantime, a new attack assessment is proposed to compare the attack effectiveness of different methods. The experiment shows that our method has more excellent performance on CPA than others. The first and the second IMF can be chosen as two optimal feature signals in CPA. In the new method, the signals of the first IMF increase peak visibility by 64% than those of the tradition EMD method in the situation of non-noise. On the condition of different noise interference, the orders of attack efficiencies are also same. With external noise interference, the attack effect of the first IMF based on noise with 15dB is the best.展开更多

While the original attack required an exact determination of the Hamming weight of intermediate data values based on power measurements, in this paper, two types of the simple power attack are presented and shown to be tolerant of errors that might occur in the Hamming weight determinations. In practical applications of the attack, such errors are likely to occur due to noise and distortion in the power measurements and their mapping to the Hamming weights of the data. To resist these attacks, the required design rationale of key schedules and several practical countermeasures are suggested.展开更多

With the advancement of embedded computing, communication and related hardware technologies, CPSs have attracted extensive attention and have been widely used in power system, traffic network, refrigeration system and other fields.

文摘Although digital changes in power systems have added more ways to monitor and control them,these changes have also led to new cyber-attack risks,mainly from False Data Injection(FDI)attacks.If this happens,the sensors and operations are compromised,which can lead to big problems,disruptions,failures and blackouts.In response to this challenge,this paper presents a reliable and innovative detection framework that leverages Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory(Bi-LSTM)networks and employs explanatory methods from Artificial Intelligence(AI).Not only does the suggested architecture detect potential fraud with high accuracy,but it also makes its decisions transparent,enabling operators to take appropriate action.Themethod developed here utilizesmodel-free,interpretable tools to identify essential input elements,thereby making predictions more understandable and usable.Enhancing detection performance is made possible by correcting class imbalance using Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique(SMOTE)-based data balancing.Benchmark power system data confirms that the model functions correctly through detailed experiments.Experimental results showed that Bi-LSTM+Explainable AI(XAI)achieved an average accuracy of 94%,surpassing XGBoost(89%)and Bagging(84%),while ensuring explainability and a high level of robustness across various operating scenarios.By conducting an ablation study,we find that bidirectional recursive modeling and ReLU activation help improve generalization and model predictability.Additionally,examining model decisions through LIME enables us to identify which features are crucial for making smart grid operational decisions in real time.The research offers a practical and flexible approach for detecting FDI attacks,improving the security of cyber-physical systems,and facilitating the deployment of AI in energy infrastructure.

文摘The wide-area damping controllers(WADCs),which are essential for mitigating regional low-frequency oscillations,face cyber-physical security threats due to the vulnerability of wide-area measurement system to cyber attacks and wind power uncertainties.This paper introduces reachability analysis method to quantify the impact of varying-amplitude attacks and uncertain wind fluctuations on the performance of WADC.Firstly,considering wind farm integration and attack injection,a nonlinear power system model with multiple buses is constructed based on Kron reduction method to improve computational efficiency and mitigate the constraints imposed by algebraic constraints.Then,a zonotope-based polytope construction method is employed to effectively model the range of attack amplitudes and wind uncertainties.By conducting reachability analysis,the reachable set preserving the nonlinear characteristics of studied system is computed,which enables the quantification of the maximum fluctuation range of regional oscillations under the dual disturbances.Case studies are undertaken on two multi-machine power systems with wind farm integration.The obtained results emphasize the efficacy of designed method,providing valuable insights into the magnitude of the impact that attacks exert on the operational characteristics of power system under various uncertain factors.
