Terminal Units (RTUs), the
substations in the grid
Privacy & Security Concern

More connections, more technology are linked to the obsolete
infrastructure.
– Add-on network technology: sensors and controls estimation
– More substations are automated/unmanned

Vulnerable to manipulate by third party
– Purposely blackout

Power System State Estimation Model

Transmitted active power from bus i to bus j
– High reactance over resistance ratio
– Linear approximation for small variance
– State vector
, measure noise e with covariance Ʃe
– Actual power flow measurement for m active power-flow branches
– Define the Jacobian matrix
– We have the linear approximation
– H is known to the power system but not known to the attackers
Bad Data Injection and Detection

State estimation from z

Bad data detection
– Residual vector
– Without attacker
where
– Bad data detection (with threshold )
without attacker:
with attacker:

otherwise
Stealth (unobservable) attack: z=Hx+c+e, where c=Hx
– Hypothesis test would fail in detecting the attacker, since the
control center believes that the true state is x + x.

Basics of Quickest Detection (QD)

Detect distribution changes of a sequence of observations

as quick as possible

with the constraint of false alarm or detection probability.
min [processing time]

s.t. Prob(true ≠ estimated) < ŋ
Classification
1. Bayesian framework:
 known prior information on probability
 SPRT (e.g. quality control, drug test, )
2. Non-Bayesian framework:
 unknown distribution and no prior
 CUSUM (e.g. spectrum sensing, abnormal detection )
QD System Model

Assuming Bayesian framework with non-stealthy attack
– the state variables are random with

The binary hypothesis test:

The distribution of measurement z under binary hyp: (differ
only in mean)

We want a detector
– False alarm and detection probabilities
Detection Model - NonBayesian

Non-Bayesian approach
– unknown prior probability, attacker statistic model

The unknown parameter exists
– in the post-change distribution and may changes over
the detection process.
– You do not know how attacker attacks.

Minimizing the worst-case effect via detection delay:

We want to detect the intruder as soon as possible
while maintaining PD.
Multi-thread CUSUM Algorithm

CUSUM Statistic:
How about the
unknown?
where Likelihood ratio term of m measurements:

By recursion, CUSUM Statistic St at time t:
St = max[St-1 + Lt (Zt ), 0]

Average run length (ARL) for declaring attack with threshold h
Declare the attacker is existing!
Otherwise, continuous to the process.

Independent Component Analysis (ICA)

Linear Independent Component Analysis
– find a linear representation of the data so that components are
as statistically independent as possible.
– i.e., among the data, find how many independent sources.

Question for bad data injection:
– Without knowing H, the attacker can be caught.
– Could attacker launch stealthy attack to the system even
without knowledge about H?
– Using ICA, attacker could estimate H and consequently, lunch
an undetectable attack.
ICA Basics

A special case of blind source separation
u=Gv

u = [ui, i = 1, 2, … m]: observable vector

G = [gij, i = 1, 2, … m, j = 1, 2, … n]: mixing matrix
(unknown)

v = [vi, i = 1, 2, … n]: source vector (unknown)

Linear ICA implementation: FastICA from [Hyvärinen]
Stealth False Data Injection with ICA

Supposing that the noise is small, then we what to do the
mapping:
u=Gv
z=Hx

Problem: state vector x is highly correlated

Consider: x = A y, where
– A: constant matrix that can be estimated
– y: independent random vectors

Then we can apply Linear ICA on z = HA y
– We cannot know H, but we can know HA
– Stealthy attack: Z=Hx+HAy+e
Numerical Simulation Setting

Simulation setup
– 4-Bus test system, IEEE 14-Bus and 30-bus
– Matpower
Numerical Results

MSE of ICA inference (z-Gy) vs. the number of observations
(14-bus case).
Performance of the Attack
The PDF is the same w or w/o attacking.
So log likelihood is equal to 1– unable to detect

Bad data injection problem formulation
From defender point of view
– detect malicious bad data injection attack as quick as possible
– Adaptive CUSUM algorithm

From attacker point of view
– can estimate both the system topology and power states just by
observing the power flow measurements
– Independent component analysis algorithm to obtain information
– Once the information is at hand, malicious attacks can be launched
without triggering the detection system
