Many people think of the Smart Grid as a power distribution group built on advanced smart metering but that s just one aspect of a much larger and more complex system.

This also represents new information paths between these new systems and services, all of which represents risk, requiring a more thorough approach to where and how cyber security controls are implemented.

This insight provides a detailed architecture of the entire Smart Grid, with recommended cyber security measures for everything from the supply chain to the consumer.
