Key Management Scheme

With the large-scale construction of smart grid, smart grid terminals widely using wireless access technology to communicate to the power systems. For ensuring the communication security, pair-wise key pre-distribution scheme is widely used, however, which introduces the complexity of key management, and insufficient security problems. According to the smart grid terminals wireless communication features, proposes an intelligent grid wireless terminal online key management scheme, which is based on the t rank binary symmetric polynomial and fully homomorphic encryption algorithm. This scheme make the communication key could be established with a few parameters between the communicating parties, which reduces the complexity of key predistribution and the amount of calculation. Moreover, the whole process of the key generation is encrypted by fully homomorphic encryption algorithm, effectively enhances the security of the scheme.

Key Management Scheme

Over the last decade, Internet of Things (IoTs) have brought radical changes to the means and forms of communication for monitoring and control of a large number of applications including Smart Grid (SG). Traditional energy networks have been modernized to SGs to boost the energy industry in the context of efficient and effective power management, performance, real-time control and information flow using two-way communication between utility provides and end-users. However, integrating two-way communication in SG comes at the cost of cyber security vulnerabilities and challenges. In the context of SG, node compromise is a severe security threat due to the fact that a compromised node can significantly impact the operations and security of the SG network. Therefore, in this chapter, Key Management Scheme for Communication Layer in the Smart Grid (KMS-CL-SG) has proposed. In order to achieve a secure end-to-end communication we assign a unique key to each node in the group.
