A unified security authentication technology based on human-machine interaction for new-type power systems

Abstract

With the adoption of a novel system architecture characterized by “physical distribution and logical unity” in new-type power systems， the support system for power grid scheduling is reconstructed. Under the new architecture， the human-machine cloud terminal （hereinafter referred to as “cloud terminal”） can realize local and remote undifferentiated browsing. However， the cloud terminal is also faced with new security challenges. First， the new architecture and the human-machine access process are analyzed， and the security problems are pointed out. Then， a unified security authentication method is proposed based on hardware fingerprint to authenticate human-machine cloud terminal is proposed. By use of digital certificates for power scheduling and biometric identification technology， multi-factor user identity authentication is performed. Startup authentication and service invocation verification are carried out， and encrypted transmission of service communication data is made possible to ensure service startup and access security. The service communication data is encrypted and transmitted to ensure the security of service startup and access. Finally， the performance of service authentication and encryption is tested， and the authentication and encryption strategies for different service request sizes are proposed. The test results show that the whole link security of human-machine access is guaranteed through the authentication of the cloud terminal， user identity， service， and communication data encryption.
