hacking their systems. USA and Israel were accused by Iran for making a virus called Stuxnet and deploying it to their nuclear facility. The virus worked to destroy about a fifth of the nuclear plants. The success came as a result of the plants spinning out of control. The government also discovered Flame that was used to acquire private data and information. Kaspersky say that unlike Stuxnet, Flame did not cause any physical damage, but was used to gather very sensitive
Generally, smart grids technologies can be put into four functional categories: Information collectors; information assemblers, displayers, and assessors; information-based controllers and energy resources. Smart grids collected data from various types of sensors. These sensors measure performance-related characteristics of electricity system components. Assessors are used to analysis and display the information they received from the devices. The information-based controllers devices will use the
double over the next 10-20 years due to the average systems are 50-60 years old. This situation is gaining more attention from regulators and utility boards. • Extreme events are driving a paradigm shift from reliability to resiliency. There is a need to improve the storm preparedness as well as to defend against physical attack and cyber-attacks. • US Electricity Fuel Transformation. The projections for the future are the following: gas
better security for the DCU Community form the premise of this report. Technology is changing at a rapid pace and the challenge lies in identifying the optimum campus card solution, which will best suit the needs of DCU. From a thorough examination of a host of campus card programmes, a comprehensive set of recommendations has been reached. A contactless, proprietary, one card system is believed to be the most advantageous solution for the DCU campus. Future interoperability, system reliability and
SMART GRID TECHNOLOGIES: INTRODUCTION: All the service connections, transformers, transmission infrastructure, substations, generation plants, and everything required in managing the generation and distribution of electrical power is known as the electrical “Grid.” The term “smart grid” has been used to describe a broad range of technologies, design concepts and operating practices that collectively paint an exciting picture of what our electric power infrastructure might look like in ten or twenty
Security is one of the most important departments in aviation. Without security in aviation it would be extremely vulnerable to threat, harm and accidents to passengers, employees and aircrafts. Aviation has been threatened for decades now. From bombings and hijackings since the 1960s to the recent bombing in Brussels. It wasn’t until 9/11 when America knew there was a big gap in the security infrastructure in aviation. So what exactly is aviation security? Aviation Security is techniques and methods
3.4 Application of WSN Current the new arrival of generation of wires sensor network has been provided for several applications because of modern period which brought the integration of the smallest physical sensors, embedded of small controllers called microcontrollers and radio interfaces on one and only single chip fabrication. All of these functions brought a wide range of application for sensor networks. The integration into wearable wires body area network has been incorporated with a big
(RELIABLE, ULTIMATE SECURITY FOR HOMES) INTRODUCTION Home security systems is no longer a luxury but a necessity in todays high crime society. Burglary is a crime New Zealanders are most likely to suffer. Our solution to this problem is a smart home security application that would allow us to effectively and efficiently notify police and homeowners discretely, as well as accurately identify the stolen items. Thus, minimizing chances of a thief escaping conviction and ultimately reduce the annual burglary
