Abstract

AbstractWith the substantial increase in implementation of green technology across all sectors worldwide to overcome energy loss, attributes such as reliability, efficiency, productivity, and security become very crucial for a system. Especially with the integration of IoT and smart features into a system alongside the evolution of Internet, cybersecurity and privacy of an individual component should be taken into important consideration. A smart grid comprises wireless network components exposed to cyber-attacks, smart meters being one the most vulnerable part of an advanced metering infrastructure. An advanced metering infrastructure enables two-way communication for automatic meter readings (AMR) and transmits data through wireless network. To counter cyber-attacks afflicting the network of AMI and functioning of a smart meter, additional intrusion detection methods are implemented into the grid network. The review includes cybersecurity concerns associated with smart meters along with an in-depth insight to some major cyber-attacks and their aftermath.KeywordsCybersecurityCyber-attacks advanced metering infrastructure (AMI)Smart metersDenial-of-service (DoS)False data injection (FDI)Man-in-the-middle (MitM)
