Abstract

Smart grid is a great new aspect of the power industry. It integrates various advanced technologies and information and communication capabilities to deal with problems found to occur with the existing electrical networks. Such integration facilitates and improves efficiency and accessibility of the electric power system with the additional features of regularly supervising, calculating, and administrating customer demands. This leads to the excessive deployment of smart meters in order to recognize the actual benefits. But, the deployment of smart meters brings up different concerns on the security of information among both consumers and service providers. This paper aims to focus on the major attacks on smart meter security which challenges the overall grid security.
