- The Internet of Things (IoT) has disrupted the IT landscape drastically, and Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) is one specification that enables these IoT devices to have access to the Internet. Former security analyses have suggested that the gateways in LoRaWAN in their current state are susceptible to a wide variety of malicious attacks, which can be notoriously difficult to mitigate since gateways are seen as obedient relays by design. These attacks, if not addressed, can cause malfunctions and loss of efficiency in the network traffic. As a solution to this unique problem, this paper presents a novel certificate authentication technique that enhances the cyber security of gateways in the LoRaWAN network. The proposed technique considers a public key infrastructure (PKI) solution that considers a two-tier certificate authority (CA) setup, such as a root-CA and intermediate-CA. This solution is promising, as the simulation results validate that about 66.67% of the packets that are arriving from an illegitimate gateway (GW) are discarded in our implemented secure and reliable solution.

- The proliferation of monitoring in unpredictableenvironments has aided the world in solving challenges that werepreviously thought to be insurmountable. Drastic advancementhas been pinpointed in the way we live, work, and play; however,the data odyssey has yet started. From sensing to monitoring,the endless possibility enabled by LoRa, the long-range lowpower solution has made its mark on the technological world.With the adoption of the LoRaWAN, the long-range low powerwide area network has appeared in existence to cope with theconstraints associated with the Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure. This paper presents a practical experiment for sensingthe environmental condition using the LoRaWAN solution. Theproposed work allows the users to check the environmentaleffects (temperature, and humidity) online. Furthermore, thesignal behavior has been recorded and cross-verified by usingMATLAB software implementation.

- This paper investigates methods to secure Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) which are the building blocks of a smart grid systems - the next generation version to replace the power grid systems that are being used today. RTUs are identified as the heart of automation and control (SCADA) systems by the systems engineers. As such, security and maintaining nominal operability of such devices has prime importance, especially for the industrial automation networks such as the smart grid. A way of measuring the security of systems and networks is executing a series of cybersecurity weakness assessment tests called penetration testing. Another way of such an assessment is called vulnerability analysis by threat modelling which involves careful investigation and modelling of each and every component of a network/system under investigation. This article, aims at marrying these two methodologies for the vulnerability assessment of the RTUs in a methodological and scientific way.

- Carbon-neutral societies are moving closer tousing renewable electricity as their primary source of energy. Indeed, decarbonization, decentralization, and digitization areall aspects of a paradigm change in burgeoning power systems. Furthermore, the design, fault rate, load demand, and climate all have a role in the complexity of the electrical network. This research 1 looks at its use and deployment in network security, with a particular emphasis on the vulnerabilities of RTU frameworks. The necessity for risk management in today’s environment, the requirement for a networked power grid, and the hardware and software components of the SCADA system have been thoroughly examined. Finally, a literature review of interoperable power grids with detailed specifics of RTU deployment was provided.
