| contents | With the increasing reliance of smart grids on correctly functioning SCADA systems and their vulnerability to cyberattacks, there is a pressing need for effective security measures. SCADA systems are prone to cyberattacks, posing risks to critical infrastructure. As there is a lack of host-based intrusion detection systems specifically designed for the stable nature of SCADA systems, the objective of this work is to propose a host-based intrusion detection system tailored for SCADA systems in smart grids. The proposed system utilizes USB device identification, flagging, and process memory scanning to monitor and detect anomalies in SCADA systems, providing enhanced security measures. Evaluation in three different scenarios demonstrates the tool's effectiveness in detecting and disabling malware. The proposed approach effectively identifies potential threats and enhances the security of SCADA systems in smart grids, providing a promising solution to protect against cyberattacks. |
