Abstract

In this demo, a cyber-physical monitoring system (CPMS) is developed to detect smart meter intrusion and bad data injection attacks. The basic idea of CPMS is based on the information fusion of cyber incidents and physical measurements. Snort is applied to monitor the traffic on all smart meters; and energy conservation is used to check the consistency of the meter readings. The experiments demonstrate that the CPMS accurately detect the attacks by associating the cyber and physical alerts.
