abstract = {Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an integral part of Critical Infrastructures (CIs), bringing both significant pros and cons. Focusing our attention on the energy sector, ICT converts the conventional electrical grid into a new paradigm called Smart Grid (SG), providing crucial benefits such as pervasive control, better utilisation of the existing resources, self-healing, etc. However, in parallel, ICT increases the attack surface of this domain, generating new potential cyberthreats. In this paper, we present the Secure and PrivatE smArt gRid (SPEAR) architecture which constitutes an overall solution aiming at protecting SG, by enhancing situational awareness, detecting timely cyberattacks, collecting appropriate forensic evidence and providing an anonymous cybersecurity information-sharing mechanism. Operational characteristics and technical specifications details are analysed for each component, while also the communication interfaces among them are described in detail. © 2020 IEEE.},

abstract = {The Electric Smart Grid (ESG) is an intelligent critical infrastructure aiming to create an automated and distributed advanced energy delivery network, while preserving information privacy. This study proposes the implementation of an Anonymous Incident Communication Channel (AICC) amongst smart grids across Europe to improve situational awareness and enhance security of the new electric intelligent infrastructures. All participating organizations will have the ability to broadcast sensitive information, stored anonymously in a repository, without exposing the reputation of the organisation. This work focuses on the requirements of establishment, the possible obstacles and proposed data protection techniques to be applied in the AICC. Furthermore, a discussion is conducted regarding the documentation of cyber-incidents. Last but not least, the benefits and the potential risks of this AICC concept are also provided. © 2018 Association for Computing Machinery.},
