Safety and Security Dependencies for GridShield
Research on smart-grid safety and security dependencies, connecting cyber-physical risk modeling with energy-domain requirements in the GridShield context.
Problem
Modern electrical grids expose coupled safety and security dependencies across cyber components, physical processes, and operational controls.
Context
GridShield and smart-grid protection research with energy-system stakeholders.
Method
Identified dependency structures between safety hazards, security threats, and grid-protection decisions.
Result
The work clarifies how safety and security concerns interact in grid-protection settings and provides a basis for more formal analysis.
Why It Matters
Energy systems cannot be protected well if cyber risks and physical safety dependencies are analyzed as separate stories.
