Abstract

The Purpose of this article is to perform information security risk analysis, risk identification, risk prioritization and risk handling on the AMI grid monitoring and Energy Accounting system assets. Information security Risk analysis performed for the assessment of risk of information impacting confidentiality, integrity and availability and to its like hood and consequences. Critical assets identified based on the Threats, vulnerability and impact on the Information system due to the risks. Risks handled with risk treatment options for risks classified based on the likelihood and consequences. Risk assessment on the critical assets will identify the risks and risk prioritization will classify the risk to handle them to treat to address the Information security risks. Information security Analysis model method, risk classification & risk treatment can be adopted across other SMART GRID Systems. Creating such risk assessment will create a risk database and the risk handling will create risk treatment history to define predictive analysis of information security risks based on this data.
