ISoLATE: Integrated distributed SCADA security through local approximations of power flow equations

To ensure a safe and secure operation of electricity grids now and in the future new security measures have to be developed. Many existing security solutions are either only centrally applied at the SCADA server or do not focus on the underlying physical process. This project investigates distributed, process-aware intrusion detection for electricity grids. We research how knowledge about the physical process can be integrated into a decentralised intrusion detection system (IDS). Further, we present an implementation of the IDS using secure, separated communication channels, and a corresponding testbed including an attack tool.
