Book synopsis

This book addresses the complexities, highlight the vulnerabilities and offers innovative solutions at the intersection of power systems and communication technologies. It presents a thorough exploration of Power Line Communication (PLC) networks, channel characteristics, security threats and countermeasures, with results supported by rigorous formalism, precise notation, and extensive experimental results. The blending of theoretical foundations, technological insights, and practical solutions are  presented within this book.  It offers a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities inherent in securing the critical intersection of energy grid and communications. Power Line Communication (PLC) has been a viable technology for decades, yet its rising industrial applications  and has recently caused an extraordinary spike in their usage. In the European Union alone, approximately 220 million smart meters are projected to be installed by 2024 (99+ million had already been commissioned by 2018), most with PLC as the preferred technology.  Several organizations (IEEE, ITU) and Industrial associations (PRIME Alliance, G3-PLC, HD-PLC) have worked for years to standardize and make PLC an attractive communication and secure technology. Despite its rapid adoption, few outcomes have focused explicitly on PLC security, and the existing ones are based mainly on traditional cryptographic principles. This book is intended for engineers, researchers and students striving to address the cybersecurity issues of our energy infrastructure. Professionals working in this field will want to purchase this book as a reference. .
