Authentication Technique for Safeguarding Privacy in Smart Grid Settings

Abstract

As a way to address issues like the depletion of energy sources and efficient energy management through the convergence of multiple fields, interest in green energy has been growing recently. As a result, the intelligent electrical grid, or “smart grid,” projects are being completed quickly in order to achieve low-carbon, green growth. But because IT is primarily focused on the electrical grid, there is a shortage of IT in smart grids as well, and the complexity of convergence is making the issue worse. There is also a growing concern about this issue because different personal data and payment information within the smart grid are progressively turning into big data and becoming a target for external intrusion and attack.
