The effects of cyber-attacks on this controller are eliminated, and the DGs are synchronized. For comparison, the resilience indicator has been used. In this controller, the cyber-attacks of the sensor and hijacking attack are well controlled. A DoS cyber-attack is more effective than other attacks and causes some DGs to go off the network.

The ring seal search (RSS) algorithm ensures the optimum compatibility of the EV charging and discharging profiles revolving around multiple objectives, such as cost of charging, peak load demand reduction, and grid stability. The proposed algorithm is tested on the distribution model through the IEEE 33-bus system. A comprehensive model with real-time data from EV charging station operators (CSOs) is also ported in this research so that the EVs can be illustrated in the power distribution network. A convenient energy management strategy (EMS) called multiobjective optimization has been introduced to provide practical solutions for CSOs and EV users. The strategy had been developed based on multiple objectives to counter different trade-offs, including EV charging and discharging profiles suitable for numerous objectives encompassing charging costs, peak load demand reduction, and grid stability. The efficiency of the deterministic approach has been verified via extensive simulations and analysis, and the outcomes incorporate a definite enhancement in metrics since the RSS algorithm considerably optimized EV charging and V2G scheduling. The EV charging and discharging profiles had been optimized to take better advantage of available resource requirements by accommodating priority-based scheduling.
