Abstract

This paper analyzes the consequences of DDoS attacks against SCADA subsystems in Smart Grids. For the needs of testing, a small DERMS (Distributed Energi Resource Management System) application for managing distributed power sources has been developed. Within the application, three different SCADA subsystem architectures were developed over which DDoS attacks were performed. The SCADA subsystem was attacked by a DDoS simulator. During the attack, system performance was measured for various numbers of attackers and different SCADA architectures.
