Smart grid is recognized as the next-generation intelligent network that optimizes energy efficiency through bidirectional communication. However, security issues arise with its widespread deployment, especially regarding identity authentication. In this study, an authentication protocol combining blockchain, ECC, dynamic Join-and-Exit mechanism, and batch verification is proposed to address these issues, with assured security through computational hard problem assumptions.
Smart grid has been acknowledged as the next-generation intelligent network that optimizes energy efficiency. Primarily through a bidirectional communication channel, suppliers and users can dynamically adjust power transmission in real time. Nonetheless, many security issues occur with the widespread deployment of smart grid, e.g., centralized register authority and potential Distributed-Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack. These existing problems threaten the availability of smart grid. In this paper, we mainly focus on solving some identity authentication issues remained in the smart grid. Combined with blockchain, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), dynamic Join-and-Exit mechanism and batch verification, a reliable and efficient authentication protocol is proposed for smart meters and utility centers. Simultaneously, the provable security of this protocol is assured by the computational hard problem assumptions. Experiment results show that our protocol has achieved security and performance improvement compared with the other ECC related schemes.
