“…According to Alfassa et al [7], a brief introduction of smart grid, AMI, and its communication networks with diagrams, alongside the requirements of network privacy and security in smart metering were stated. The study analyzed the potential security issues introduced by man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacks and session hijacking attacks.…”

“…However, there have been several studies on the aforementioned AMI security and privacy issues. This is because a nation's security and economy alongside her public safety largely rely on it [7]. More so, its failure or inadequacies have been found to have debilitating impacts such as huge economic and property losses as experienced in 2003 when the United States of America (USA) blackout caused billions of dollars; which is also an example of similar security breach experiences in other nations [6].…”

The traditional electrical grid has to be digitally improved as digitalization and effective integration of renewable energy bring better efficiency, intelligence, and safety into the grid; hence, the transition from the traditional grid to a smart grid. A smart grid is a modernized and digitalized standard electrical infrastructure that has a key component known as the advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). AMI, also known as smart metering, is a key technological enabler of the smart grid that allows automatic collection and reporting of power-consumed data via two-way communication networks. However, the collected power consumption data is confidential; hence, its privacy must be maintained. Similarly, for the benefit of the smart grid to be consistently maximized, the AMI data and network security must always be intact despite the evolving threats and attacks targeted at it.This paper provides a comprehensive review of the existing vulnerabilities/attacks, security and privacy challenges associated with the smart metering data and network system, its open issues, and future direction. The major contributions of this review paper lie in the AMI vulnerabilities, AMI state-of-the-art security schemes with their pros and cons, its communication protocols analysis, and its emerging security measures. This gave enumerated recommendations for the efficiency improvement of AMI security in terms of its latency reduction while implementing efficient security measures in its future work.

The current era extensively utilizes the Internet, which uses data. Due to the apparent openaccess Internet service, this data is highly vulnerable to attacks. Data privacy is affected by Web-based attacks. This Systematic Literature Review (SLR) focuses on two Web-based attacks: Man-In-The-Middle and session hijacking. It reviews about 30 studies from the years 2016-2023 that have been selected utilizing a proper study selection procedure. This SLR comprises three research questions. The first describes the overall trends in Man-In-The-Middle attacks and session hijacking studies. It shows that 7 articles were published in 2018, and the trend is decreasing to 4 articles by 2021. Moreover, 73% articles are published in conference venues, and India is the top contributor in this domain. Lastly, this question elaborated that IEEE is the top contributor as a publisher. The second addresses the sorts of attacks used by Man-In-The-Middle attacks and session hijacking on Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). This demonstrates that Man-In-The-Middle attacks invade all layers and session hijacking attacks on only two, that is, the application and network layer. The third research question discusses the solutions provided by different studies to deal with Man-In-The-Middle attacks and session hijacking. In conclusion, this analysis highlights the need for stronger cybersecurity measures against Man-in-the-Middle and session hijacking assaults in the Internet era by revealing evolving trends, contributors, and solutions in data privacy.

The expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT), Smart Grids (SG), and renewable energy sources has created a greater need for effective cybersecurity measures. These systems need to be protected from all threats in order to maintain continuity and functionality. Smart grids are made up of integrated modules that rely on essential data communication. Each module is exposed to different cybersecurity issues that, if compromised, will affect the entire system. This study addressed the security and data integrity issues in smart energy meters (SEMs), which are critical components in smart grid networks. After a comprehensive review of existing products and their features, a security-focused design for the SEM was proposed. The proposed solution provides a multi-level design to ensure the hardware, communication, and data security of the SEM. The solution mitigates Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, data integrity issues, data privacy and energy theft. The security of a smart meter depends on securing two-way data communication, data processing and data integrity. To achieve this goal, the authors leveraged LoRaWAN technology in smart grid communications and unidirectional data transmission to ensure network security and resilience.
