Abstract

In 2018, Abbasinezhad-Mood and Nikooghadam (IEEE Transaction on Smart Grid, pp 6194–6205, 9(6), 2018) proposed an ultra-lightweight secure scheme for neighbourhood area network ( $N A N$ ) communications in smart grid. They have claimed that their protocol is secure against all known attacks in $N A N$ environment by providing informal security analysis besides a formal analysis which was done by using an automatic verification tool. However, by performing several attacks, this study shows that their scheme has serious security flaws. After performing each attack, lightweight countermeasures is proposed for securing their protocol against that attack.

关于“利用ARM Cortex-M微控制器实现智能电表和邻里网关通信的超轻量级安全方案”的安全性

2018年，Abbasinezhad Mood和Nikooghadam（IEEE智能电网交易，第6194–6205页，9（6），2018）提出了一种用于智能电网中邻域网络（N A N$\boldsymbol｛N｝\boldsymbol{A｝\bold symbol｛N｝$）通信的超轻量级安全方案。他们声称，他们的协议除了通过使用自动验证工具。然而，通过多次攻击，本研究表明他们的方案存在严重的安全缺陷。在执行每一次攻击之后，都会提出轻量级对策来保护他们的协议免受该攻击。
