Smart grid has changed power systems and their reliability concerns. Along with that, cyber security issues are also introduced due to the use of intelligent electronic devices (IEDs), wireless sensory network (WSN), and internet of things (IoT) for two-way communication. This chapter presents a review of different methods used from 2010 to 2020 focusing on citation as the main criteria for reliability assessment of smart grids and proposals to improve reliability when it comes to assessing a practical transmission system. It shows that evolutionary techniques are the latest trend for smart grid security.

The future power system will be an innovative administration of existing power grids, which is called smart grid. Above all, the application of advanced communication and computing tools is going to significantly improve the productivity and consistency of smart grid systems with renewable energy resources. Together with the topographies of the smart grid, cyber security appears as a serious concern since a huge number of automatic devices are linked through communication networks. Cyber attacks on those devices had a direct influence on the reliability of extensive infrastructure of the power system.  In this survey, several published works related to smart grid system vulnerabilities, potential intentional attacks, and suggested countermeasures for these threats have been investigated.
