Cyber-attacks, poses new threats and issues for modern day power systems. In order to understand those threats, a cyber-power test bed must be developed for testing cyber attacks on a power system and along with its crucial components and data.

We created a flexible test bed that will allow for penetration testing to be done within a power system environment. Cyber-attacks, poses new threats and issues for modern day power systems. In order to understand those threats, a cyber-power test bed must be developed for testing cyber attacks on a power system and along with its crucial components and data. The cyber-power test bed in development will include the RTDS machine for simulating the power system, a computer with a virtual machine that will simulate the power system via RSCAD, an SQL database to store the important data for the power system that is streamed via OpenPDC, an attacking computer with a virtual machine containing common hacking tools, and a network switch to place all virtual and real machines on the same network for an isolated testing environment.
