This paper studies physical consequences of unobservable false data injection (FDI) attacks designed only with information inside a sub-network of the power system. The goal of this attack is to overload a chosen target line without being…

We model smart grids as complex interdependent networks, and study targeted attacks on smart grids for the first time. A smart grid consists of two networks: the power network and the communication network, interconnected by edges.…

With the rapid growth in the number of IoT devices being added to the network, a major concern that arises is the security of these systems. As these devices are resource constrained, safety measures are difficult to implement on the edge.…

The goal of this note is to assess whether simple machine learning algorithms can be used to determine whether and how a given network has been attacked. The procedure is based on the $k$-Nearest Neighbor and the Random Forest…

Ultra-low latency communication for mobile machines emerges as a critical technology in Internet of Things (IoT). Proactive network association has been suggested to support ultra-low latency communication with the assistance of mobile edge…

Proliferation of advanced metering devices with high sampling rates in distribution grids, e.g., micro-phasor measurement units ({\mu}PMU), provides unprecedented potentials for wide-area monitoring and diagnostic applications, e.g.,…

In this paper, we introduce a new vulnerability of cyber-physical systems to malicious attack. It arises when the physical plant, that is modeled as a continuous-time LTI system, is controlled by a digital controller. In the sampled-data…

Recent attacks on power grids demonstrated the vulnerability of the grids to cyber and physical attacks. To analyze this vulnerability, we study cyber-physical attacks that affect both the power grid physical infrastructure and its…

Time series anomaly detection is critical for maintaining the reliability of mission-critical systems. While Transformer-based models like PatchTST have shown remarkable performance, their $\mathcal{O}(L^2)$ computational complexity…

The reliable operation of power grid is supported by energy management systems (EMS) that provide monitoring and control functionalities. Contingency analysis is a critical application of EMS to evaluate the impacts of outages and prepare…

The routing protocol for low-power and lossy networks (RPL) has become the de facto routing standard for resource-constrained IoT systems, but its lightweight design exposes critical vulnerabilities to a wide range of routing-layer attacks…

Estimating rare events in complex systems is a key challenge in reliability analysis. The challenge grows in multimodal problems, where traditional methods often rely on a small set of design points and risk overlooking critical failure…

Ambient Forcing is a novel method to sample random states from manifolds of differential-algebraic equations (DAE). These states can represent local perturbations of nodes in power systems with loads, which introduces constraints into the…

To address the increasing vulnerability of power grids, significant attention has been focused on the attack detection and impact mitigation. However, it is still unclear how to effectively and quickly recover the cyber and physical…

Given that disturbances to the stable and normal operation of power systems have grown phenomenally, particularly in terms of unauthorized access to confidential and critical data, injection of malicious software, and exploitation of…

The increasing uncertainty in modern power systems, driven by the integration of intermittent energy sources and variable loads, underscores the need for probabilistic transient stability assessment. However, existing assessment methods…

Load shedding is the last and most expensive control action against system collapse and blackout. Achievement of an efficient emergency control to stabilize the power system following severe disturbances, requires two key objectives. First,…

Random attacks that jointly minimize the amount of information acquired by the operator about the state of the grid and the probability of attack detection are presented. The attacks minimize the information acquired by the operator by…

Time-of-flight (ToF) distance measurement devices such as ultrasonics, LiDAR and radar are widely used in autonomous vehicles for environmental perception, navigation and assisted braking control. Despite their relative importance in making…

Smart grids are inherently susceptible to various types of malicious cyberattacks that have all been documented in the recent literature. Traditional cybersecurity research on power systems often utilizes simplified models that fail to…
