Research Project:
The interconnectedness of the electric power system makes it necessary to view it as a cyber-physical system that is not only exposed to physical threats, such as natural disasters but is also increasingly subject to threats from cyberspace. Through a directed attack on the energy system, the goal of destabilizing the energy supply could be pursued by, for example, affecting the coordination of actors in the system or manipulating the physical system components.
In order to investigate the damage potential of possible cyber threats, the research project is conducting investigations on stress tests that consider the electric power system as a nexus of physical, information technology, and economic systems. Particular attention will be paid to the various stress testing approaches already used in the field of financial regulation.
