With the integration of advanced communication technologies, the power grid is expected to greatly enhance efficiency and reliability of future energy delivery. However, since most devices in electric substations are connected via communication networks, the security of these communication networks becomes a critical issue. Real-World incidents, e.g., Stuxnet and the 2015 Ukraine power grid cyber attack, have demonstrated the feasibility of compromising devices in the power grid network to launch further sophisticated attacks. To deal with security attacks of this spirit, this paper aims to hide critical targets from compromised internal nodes and hence protect them from further attacks launched by those compromised nodes. In particular, we consider substation networks and propose to add carefullycontrolled dummy traffic to a substation network to make critical target nodes indistinguishable from other nodes in network traffic patterns. This paper describes the design and evaluation of such a scheme. Evaluations show that the scheme can effectively protect critical nodes with acceptable communication cost. |
