Abstract To assess and prevent the smart grid information security risks more effectively, this paper provides risk index quantitative calculation method based on absorbing Markov chain to overcome the deficiencies that links between system components were not taken into consideration and studies mostly were limited to static evaluation. The method avoids the shortcomings of traditional Expert Score with significant subjective factors and also considers the links between information system components, which make the risk index system closer to the reality. Then, a smart grid information security risk assessment model on the basis of set pair analysis improved by Markov chain was established. Using the identity, discrepancy, and contradiction of connection degree to dynamically reflect the trend of smart grid information security risk and combining with the Markov chain to calculate connection degree of the next period, the model implemented the smart grid information security risk assessment comprehensively and dynamically. Finally, this paper proves that the established model is scientific, effective, and feasible to dynamically evaluate the smart grid information security risks.

With the high integration of smart grid information and physical systems, the security of information systems must affect the safe and stable operation of physical systems. Risk assessment is an effectual means to objectively evaluate the information security threats of the smart grid. However, the existing risk assessment methods are aim at solving the threat of security risks in communication networks and information systems in the smart grid, but there is no in-depth study on how the spread of information security risks between information systems and physical systems in the smart grid. Therefore, based on the traditional infectious disease transmission theory, the information security risk propagation model based on the Susceptible–Exposed–Infected–Recovered (SEIR) infectious disease model for smart grid (ISRP-SEIRIDM) is proposed in this paper. In ISRP-SEIRIDM, we analyze the information interaction between information collection devices and define the connection of nature and the security risks between the information collection devices in the smart grid. At the same time, we also study the impact of the number of information acquisition devices and information interaction capabilities of these devices on the speed of security risk transmission between information systems and physics systems in the smart grid and the maximum risk range. Experimental results show that the risk propagation range can be significantly reduced by optimizing the data interaction capability and information transmission path between information collection devices in the smart grid; when a probability from a susceptible state to an exposed state reduces by 0.15, the maximum spread and average spread of security risk will be reduced by 7% and 1.96%, respectively.

<p class="Abstract"><em><span lang="EN-US">SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems as the control unit of the smart grid has been used in almost various industries around the world in terms of automation systems. Smart grid technology combines the energy infrastructure and telecommunications and Internet networks. The system provides the operational ease and efficiency in the industry. However, the system has a lot of vulnerabilities in information security aspects that can have a major impact for the industry and even the economy. This study tried to design in building a smart grid cyber security, it includes the strategies that must be done and the information security system architecture to be built. The study was conducted qualitative in-depth interviews, focus group discussions and direct observation. Results of this research is the design strategy recommendations ddalam development of smart grid cyber security. Recommendation results of this study also intended as a suggestion-making framework for smart grid cyber security as a reference implementation of the smart grid in Indonesia.</span></em></p>
