Abstract

Cloud computing is a flexible, cost-effective and proven delivery platform for providing business or consumer IT services over the Internet. The cloud computing technology is especially suitable for handling series of problems in smart grid. However, the development of cloud computing technology is currently at its infancy, especially with many security issues to be addressed. In this paper, we first present the overall architecture of cloud computing applications in smart grid. After that, we analyze some security risks that cannot be avoided in the private cloud environment. Finally, we propose a unified security protection system framework and give some practicable security protection suggestions.
