Cyber Defense in Energy: Federated Learning Solution for Malicious Intrusions in Smart Grids
摘要
Smart grids, which combine powerful information technology with energy infrastructure, are revolutionizing the distribution of energy in the field of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). However, creative solutions are required because of their vulnerability to cyber threats. In order to provide improved cybersecurity, this work applies federated learning (FL) for malware detection in smart grids. Local models based on Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) use deep neural networks in a two-tier approach to identify malware context-aware. By combining information from local models, federated learning creates a global model that protects privacy. The first dataset confirms the dependability of the SafeGrid Classifier with a remarkable accuracy of 94.5% and recall of 92%. This highlights the versatility of FL with a progressive performance ascent.
