Abstract (arXiv)

False data injection attacks (FDIAs) pose a significant security threat to power system state estimation. To detect such attacks, recent studies have proposed machine learning (ML) techniques, particularly deep neural networks (DNNs). However, most of these methods fail to account for the risk posed by adversarial measurements, which can compromise the reliability of DNNs in various ML applications. In this paper, we present a DNN-based FDIA detection approach that is resilient to adversarial attacks. We first analyze several adversarial defense mechanisms used in computer vision and show their inherent limitations in FDIA detection. We then propose an adversarial-resilient DNN detection framework for FDIA that incorporates random input padding in both the training and inference phases. Our simulations, based on an IEEE standard power system, demonstrate that this framework significantly reduces the effectiveness of adversarial attacks while having a negligible impact on the DNNs' detection performance.
