Abstract
As a classic Cyber-Physical System (CPS), smart grids often suffer from various types of attacks, one of which the most threatening attacks is Coordinated Cyber-Physical Attack (CCPA). In order to improve the robustness of the smart grid under CCPA, two attack strategies are proposed to analyze the cascading failure of smart grids. Firstly, we define attack goals (AGs) function to identify important cyber and physical nodes as possible targets. Secondly, based on these targets, the algorithm of optimal attack and saturation attack strategy is designed and applied to CCPA for analyzing the effect of those attack strategies on smart grids. Finally, node loss is used as an evaluation index to compare the attack effect of CCPA, Cyber Attack (CA) and Physical Attack (PA). The experimental results show that when the same proportion of nodes are removed, the CCPA has more node losses than the CA and PA, regardless of based on the optimal attack strategy or the saturation attack strategy.
