Abstract
Cybersecurity breaches in digital substations can pose significant challenges
to the stability and reliability of power system operations. To address these
challenges, defense and mitigation techniques are required. Identifying and
detecting anomalies in information and communication technology (ICT) is
crucial to ensure secure device interactions within digital substations. This
paper proposes a task-oriented dialogue (ToD) system for anomaly detection (AD)
in datasets of multicast messages e.g., generic object oriented substation
event (GOOSE) and sampled value (SV) in digital substations using large
language models (LLMs). This model has a lower potential error and better
scalability and adaptability than a process that considers the cybersecurity
guidelines recommended by humans, known as the human-in-the-loop (HITL)
process. Also, this methodology significantly reduces the effort required when
addressing new cyber threats or anomalies compared with machine learning (ML)
techniques, since it leaves the models complexity and precision unaffected and
offers a faster implementation. These findings present a comparative
assessment, conducted utilizing standard and advanced performance evaluation
metrics for the proposed AD framework and the HITL process. To generate and
extract datasets of IEC 61850 communications, a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL)
testbed was employed.
