Privacy-Preserving KNN Classification Algorithm for Smart Grid

A Lightweight Privacy-preserving Authenticated Key Exchange Scheme for Smart Grid Communications

Smart grid concept is introduced to modify the power grid by utilizing new information and communication technology. Smart grid needs live power consumption monitoring to provide required services and for this issue, bi-directional communication is essential. Security and privacy are the most important requirements that should be provided in the communication. Because of the complex design of s...

Privacy Preserving Moving KNN Queries

We present a novel approach that protects trajectory privacy of users who access locationbased services through a moving k nearest neighbor (MkNN) query. An MkNN query continuously returns the k nearest data objects for a moving user (query point). Simply updating a user’s imprecise location such as a region instead of the exact position to a locationbased service provider (LSP) cannot ensure p...

A Survey on Privacy-preserving Schemes for Smart Grid Communications

In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey of privacy-preserving schemes for Smart Grid communications. Specifically, we select and in-detail examine thirty privacy preserving schemes developed for or applied in the context of Smart Grids. Based on the communication and system models, we classify these schemes that are published between 2013 and 2016, in five categories, including, 1) Sma...

Security and Privacy-Preserving Metering Service in the Smart Grid

The deployment of smart metering provides an immense amount of data for power grid operators and energy providers. By using this data, a more efficient and flexible power grid can be realized. However, this data also raises privacy concerns since it contains very sensitive information about customers. In this paper, we present a security and privacy-preserving metering scheme for the community ...
