Objective

Shielding the power grid from cyberattacks

The Electrical Power and Energy System (EPES) is of key importance to Europe’s economy, as all other domains rely on the availability of electricity. A power outage can directly impact the availability of other services such as transport, finance, communication and water supply. Digital solutions have become essential to keeping the light on and the energy grid humming, but there is an increased risk of cyberattacks. As such, addressing cybersecurity is necessary. The EU-funded EnergyShield project will develop an integrated toolkit that combines the latest technologies for vulnerability assessment, monitoring and protection, as well as learning and sharing. It will be tailored to meet the needs of EPES operators.
