Cyber-attacks on the power grid can take routes through Internet connections, business or enterprise network connections, or connections to other networks. Keysight's network digital twin, which has been used to analyze the resilience of mission-critical tactical battlefield networks, has been integrated with OPAL-RT's simulations to help analyze and protect power grids from attack. We will demonstrate this co-simulation using a known real-world attack including live human-in-the-loop actions (and mistakes).
