Opis

Many people think of the Smart Grid as a power distribution group built on advanced smart metering--but that's just one aspect of a much larger and more complex system. The "Smart Grid" requires new technologies throughout energy generation, transmission and distribution, and even the homes and businesses being served by the grid. This also represents new information paths between these new systems and services, all of which represents risk, requiring a more thorough approach to where and how cyber security controls are implemented. This insight provides a detailed architecture of the entire Smart Grid, with recommended cyber security measures for everything from the supply chain to the consumer.

• Discover the potential of the Smart Grid
• Learn in depth about its systems
• See its vulnerabilities and how best to protect it

Recenzje

".it's a thorough overview of both the problem of smart grid security and what you need to do to address it. And it's not presented in some abstracted, high-level policy fashion - after reading this book, you will have a proper understanding of the work that needs to be done." --Network Security Newsletter, October 2013

"Computer security professionals Knapp and Samani warn that the smart electrical grid now being planned and designed will be vulnerable to attack." --Reference & Research Book News, October 2013

".looking for a detailed and technical introduction to smart grid security and a synopsis of the security and privacy issues, Applied Cyber Security and the Smart Grid: Implementing Security Controls into the Modern Power Infrastructure is a great place to start." --RSAConference.com, April 8, 2013
