“…The majority of articles found in this systematic literature review use previous research to find the different possible vulnerabilities or attacks on the systems that they model [ 4 , 13 , 16 , 19 , 23 , 26 , 28 – 30 , 34 , 46 , 52 , 53 ]. Previous research is also used in combination with other information sources [ 9 – 11 , 20 , 31 , 41 ].…”

Power systems are one of the critical infrastructures that has seen an increase in cyber security threats due to digitalization. The digitalization also affects the size and complexity of the infrastructure and therefore makes it more difficult to gain an overview in order to secure the entire power system from attackers. One method of how to gain an overview of possible vulnerabilities and security threats is to use threat modeling. In threat modeling, information regarding the vulnerabilities and possible attacks of power systems is required to create an accurate and useful model. There are several different sources for this information. In this paper we conduct a systematic literature review to find which information sources that have been used in power system threat modeling research. Six different information sources were found: expert knowledge, logs & alerts, previous research, system’s state, vulnerability scoring & databases, and vulnerability scanners.

Critical infrastructures are essential for national security, economy, and public safety. As an important part of security protection, response strategy making provides useful countermeasures to reduce the impacts of cyberattacks. However, there have been few researches in this domain that investigate the cyberattack propagation within a station and the incident spreading process in the critical infrastructure network simultaneously, let along analyzing the relationships between security strategy making for a station and scheduling strategy for the critical infrastructure network. To tackle this problem, a hierarchical colored Petri net–based cyberattacks response strategy making approach for critical infrastructures is presented. In this approach, the relationships among cyberattacks, security measures, devices, functions, and station capacity are analyzed and described in a hierarchical way, and the system loss is calculated with the input of abnormal station capacities. Then, based on the above model, the security strategy making for a station and the scheduling strategy making for the critical infrastructure network are investigated in depth. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated on a simulated water supply system.

“…The traditional local control method was unable to meet the requirements of security and stability in the current wide area power system. In recent years, the wide area measurement system (WAMS) based on phasor measurement unit (PMU) has rapidly developed and widely used in power system, which promoted the development of the wide area control in power system (Hadidi & Jeyasurya, 2013;Manousakis, Korres, & Georgilakis, 2012;Yan, Govindarasu, Liu, Ming, & Vaidya, 2015). In the wide area environment, time delay exists in the process of signal transmission and processing, especially in long distance transmission.…”

In view of the problem that time delay always existing in wide area power system can cause severe effects on the operation performance of the whole system, this paper studies the stability of the wide area power system with interval time-varying delays. Firstly, the model of wide area power system with interval time-varying delay is established, based on that, a new augmented vector and new Lyapunov-Krasoskii functional (LKF) are constructed. Then, the delay-partitioning approach, Wirtinger integral inequality, free-matrix-based inequality and convex combination approach are used to estimate the derivative of the functional, and as a result, a less conservative stability criterion for the delayed power system is obtained. Finally, numerical simulations of the typical second-order system, the single machine system and two-area four-generator power system are given to illustrate that the proposed method in this paper expands the stability margin of the system effectively.
