  • SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system for control and supervision of power system is now being operated in KEPCO with high performance. But the performance of RGS(Report Generating System) is comparatively insufficient because the SCADA system was produced for special purpose performing in real time. Therefore, we have performed this study applied for the purpose of processing the statistic data of power network and improving facilities and availabilities of the system.

  • Current substation SCADA system has only one control center where two or three operaters monitor and control more than 40 substations spreaded far and wide. The scope of this system is too wide to cope with the concurrent multiple accidents in electric network by the typhoon and large mow. This paper describes the method to organize the optimal structure of substation SCADA system using remote console and small scale control center.

  • Up to date, operator assistance systems -fault diagnosis system, fault restoration system etc.- are developed for power system automation. In this condition, an efficiency test of assistance system must be performed to prove application in real power system. This paper presents an SCADA simulator for an efficiency test of the operator assistance system, which is developed in the SCADA system. The proposed simulator is implemented under Win95 with Pentium-PC.

  • When SCADA is exposed to cyber threats and attacks, serious disasters can occur throughout society. This is because various security threats have not been considered when building SCADA. The bigger problem is that it is difficult to patch vulnerabilities quickly because of its availability. Digital forensics procedures and techniques need to be used to analyze and investigate vulnerabilities in SCADA systems in order to respond quickly against cyber threats and to prevent incidents. This paper addresses SCADA forensics taxonomy and research trends for effective digital forensics investigation on SCADA system. As a result, we have not been able to find any research that goes far beyond traditional digital forensics on procedures and methodologies. But it is meaningful to develop an approach methodology using the characteristics of the SCADA system, or an exclusive tool for SCADA. Analysis techniques mainly focused on PLC and SCADA network protocol. It is because the cyber threats and attacks targeting SCADA are mostly related to PLC or network protocol. Such research seems to continue in the future. Unfortunately, there is lack of discussion about the 'Evidence Capability' such as the preservation or integrity of the evidence extracting from SCADA system in the past researches.

  • This paper briefly introduces a strategy of data links between EMS and SCADA systems for the KEPCO's EMS project. For the data links, front end/communication processors are adopted that provide for protocol conversion and communication processing in parallel with EMS/SCADA processing. The data link configuration for a communication channel is point to point links. The EMS - hardware and software - has capability of handling links utilizing both bisync protocol and X.25 (Level 1 and 2)protocol for the data link protocol.

  • OPC UA(IEC62541) is a communication protocol for SG(Smart Grid) application platform. It was standardized by IEC TC57 group in December 2012. The IEC61850 has been used in Digital Substation Systems and Smart Distributed Systems. The DNP3.0 has been used for device's data collection/control in Distributed Systems. The DLMS/COSEM has been used to control metering and collect information in the Smart Metering. The top-level SG management platform needs an independent middleware to manage transparently the Power Information Technology, including the IEC61850, DNP3.0, DLMS/COSEM. In this paper, we propose the SDG(Scada Data Gateway) platform. It manages Power Information Technology based Digital Substation Systems and Smart Distributed systems, Smart Metering through OPC UA.

  • In recently years, there are cyber-weapon aim to national infrastructure such as 'stuxnet'. Security experts of the world are paying attention to this phenomenon. The networks which controls traffic, subway, waterworks of the city are safe from threats such as computer virus, malware, because the networks were built on closed-networks. However, it's about time to develop countermeasure for the cyber-weapon. In this paper, we review status-quo of the control systems for metropolitan infrastructure and analyze the risk of industrial control system in SCADA(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) network. Finally, we propose a security model for control systems of metropolitan infrastructure.

  • This paper is about the study to build a quantitative methodology to assess cyber threats and vulnerabilities on control systems. The SCADA system in power industry is one of the most representative and biggest control systems. The SCADA system was originally a local system but it has been extended to wide area as both ICT and power system technologies evolve. Smart Grid is a concept to integrate energy and IT systems, and therefore the existing cyber threats might be infectious to the power system in the integration process. Power system is operated on a real time basis and this could make the power system more vulnerable to the cyber threats. It is a unique characteristic of power systems different from ICT systems. For example, availability is the most critical factor while confidentiality is the one from the CIA triad of IT security. In this context, it is needed to reflect the different characteristics to assess cyber security risks in power systems. Generally, the risk(R) is defined as the multiplication of threat(T), vulnerability(V), and asset(A). This formula is also used for the quantification of the risk, and a conceptual methodology is proposed for the objective in this study.

  • This paper suggests a structure of power control system in floating wave-offshore wind hybrid power generation system. We have developed an unified SCADA(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system which can be used to monitor and control PCS(Power Conversion System) based on IEC61850. The SCADA system is essential to perform the algorithm like proportional distribution and data acquisition, monitoring, active power, reactive power control in hybrid power generation system. IEC61850 is an international standard for electrical substation automation systems. It was made to compensate the limitations of the legacy industrial protocols such as Modbus. In order to test the proposed SCADA system and algorithm, we have developed the wind-wave simulator based Modbus. We have designed a protocol conversion device based on real-time Linux for the communication between Modbus and IEC61850. In this study, SCADA system consists of four 3MW class wind turbines and twenty-four 100kW class wave force generator.
