Guidelines for Developing a Power-Grid Cybersecurity Database in Europe

Abstract

As the interconnectivity of power grids continues to expand, their susceptibility to cyber threats has also risen sharply. In order to counteract these risks, it's crucial to embrace trustworthy communication protocols and standards that incorporate stringent security safeguards. One feasible approach to confront the escalating cyber threats is creating a cybersecurity database specifically designed for power grid systems. This paper will examine the advantages and challenges of creating such a database and potential strategies for overcoming these challenges.
