Abstract :
Smart grid is expected to improve the efficiency, reliability and economics of current energy systems. Using two-way flow of electricity and information, smart grid builds an automated, highly distributed energy delivery network. In this paper, we present the requirements for intrusion detection systems (IDSs) in neighborhood area network (NAN) as a component of smart grid. We propose an IDS that is implemented in a distributed fashion with respect to NAN´s communication and computation needs. An analytical approach is employed for detecting Wormhole attacks. We validate our NAN IDS scheme using OPNET Modeler [1]. The analytical part of the solution is developed in Maple [2] and integrated with OPNET.
