in the vicinity of the wireless transmitter, that receiver can obtain a copy of every packet that is transmitted! These packets can contain all kinds of sensitive information, including passwords, social security numbers, trade secrets, and private personal messages.

result of a cyber-attack (Li et al., 2012). The power grid uses dedicated lines with Inter Control Center Protocols (ICCP) and IP based LAN protocols to communicate between corporate and control centers (Kuder et al., 2010). Communication between the control center and substations is generally performed using the distributed network protocol (DNP) as well as wireless technology. This complicated means of communication between links makes power grid automation systems vulnerable to cyber-attacks.…
