AbstractSmart grid1 is a modern power transmission network. With its development, the computing, communication and physical processes is getting more and more connected. However, an adversary can destroy power production by attacking the power secondary equipment. Accurate and fast response to cyber-attacks is a prerequisite for stable grid operation. Therefore, it is critical to identify and classify attacks in the smart grid. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that utilizes machine learning algorithms to help classify cyber-attacks. We built a deep neural network (DNN) model and select the global optimal parameters to achieve high generalization performance. The evaluation result demonstrates that the proposed method can effectively identify cyber-attacks in smart grid with an accuracy as high as 96%.
