Project Overview

Our project is aiming to show and simulate the potential risks and outcomes of different cyber attacks being exploited on an electrical power grid. Places like the City of Ames could use this information to help make their power grids more secure. These attacks can lead to an attacker to gain access to a workstation and then proceed to manipulate movement of power throughout the power grid. These threats are ongoing and can occur at any time if a hacker is able to infiltrate the system. It is important to prepare for these potential threats because serious damages could occur to a city's distribution of power and leave lasting results. Our project is to help show how power grid companies can see results of specific attacks and the outcome that results from these attacks.
