Abstract
Recent cyber attacks on the power grid have been of increasing complexity and sophistication. It is important that the power system remain resilient to such cyber-attacks, and supply power to the critical loads even with multiple contingencies. In order to understand the impact of cyber-attacks on the power system resiliency, it is important to consider an holistic cyber-physical system specially with increasing industrial automation. Three cyber-physical resiliency metrics considering cyber vulnerabilities, cyber-physical system model, and device level properties are proposed, for various applications.Various Use cases are presented to demonstrate application of the developed cyber-physical resiliency metrics to enhance situational awareness of the operator, and enable better control actions to improve resiliency. In addition, the metrics are tested and validated using a cyber-physical testbed, which is created by using various ad-hoc simulation and emulation tools.
