Abstract

An advanced metering infrastructure is an integrated system of smart meters, communications networks and data management systems designed to support the safe, efficient and reliable distribution of electricity while providing advanced functionality to energy customers. Unfortunately, sophisticated cyber attacks on advanced metering infrastructures are a clear and present danger. The most devastating scenario involves a computer worm that traverses advanced metering infrastructures and permanently disables millions of smart meters.
