Abstract
The electricity sector needs assurance that its critical components are sufficiently protected from cyberthreats. This assurance can be obtained from cybersecurity assessments, provided they are conducted methodologically. This chapter is focused on presenting a cybersecurity assessment approach and its supporting infrastructure, particularly applicable to the electricity sector due to avoidance of undesired interferences and interruptions in the systems’ operation. After introducing the relevant concepts, as well as reviewing alternative methods and testbeds, the details of the approach are provided.
