Security-by-design framework for AI-enabled energy management systems: a sociotechnical approach
By
Theodore Kindong, Gianluigi Viscusi, Björn Johansson
Summary
This academic research paper presents a Design Science Research (DSR) approach to developing a sociotechnical framework for security by design in AI-enabled Energy Management Systems (EMS). It addresses the data security and governance challenges arising from the digital transformation of the global energy sector, as traditional power grids evolve into smart, decentralized systems powered by artificial intelligence. The study aims to ensure trustworthy and resilient energy infrastructure by integrating security considerations into the design of AI-enabled EMS from the ground up.
