The integration of sensors and communication technology in power systems, known as the smart grid, is an emerging topic in science and technology. One of the critical issues in the smart grid is its increased vulnerability to cyber threats. As such, various types of threats and defense mechanisms are proposed in literature. This paper offers a bibliometric survey of research papers focused on the security aspects of Internet of Things (IoT) aided smart grids. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the very first bibliometric survey paper in this specific field. A bibliometric analysis of all journal articles is performed and the findings are sorted by dates, authorship, and key concepts. Furthermore, this paper also summarizes the types of cyber threats facing the smart grid, the various security mechanisms proposed in literature, as well as the research gaps in the field of smart grid security.

False Data Injection (FDI) attacks are a common form of Cyber-attack targetting smart grids. Detection of stealthy FDI attacks is impossible by the current bad data detection systems. Machine learning is one of the alternative methods proposed to detect FDI attacks. This paper analyzes three various supervised learning techniques, each to be used with three different feature selection (FS) techniques. These methods are tested on the IEEE 14-bus, 57-bus, and 118-bus systems for evaluation of versatility. Accuracy of the classification is used as the main evaluation method for each detection technique. Simulation study clarify the supervised learning combined with heuristic FS methods result in an improved performance of the classification algorithms for FDI attack detection.
