Abstract :
This paper gives an overview of the issues to be tackled when managing a secure smart power grid. It is targeted to applicative scenarios, namely smart metering, electric car (E-car) management and home multimedia gateway based on power-line data transmission. The ENIAC JU TOISE project concepts, wherein the paper is framed, are introduced. Then the scenarios are illustrated, the architectural model of the smart grid is described at a high level, the actors and services are identified, and the main security threats are listed.
