Homomorphic Encryption-Based Resilient Distributed Energy Management Under Cyber-Attack of Micro-Grid With Event-Triggered Mechanism

Privacy disclosures and malevolent data intrusions targeting adversarial agents pose significant menaces to cyber-physical systems, a reality that extends to the intricate realm of micro-grid energy management. This paper proposes a homomorphic encryption based resilient distributed algorithm with an event-triggered mechanism to address this problem. Due to the potential information disclosure issue, exchange information is encrypted to an arbitrary neighbor and decrypted with a private key to protect agents. Considering the potential security attacks on adversary agents, an event-trigger based resilient distributed optimization with trusted agents (ETRDO-T) is proposed. It ensures the convergence of distributed algorithms, as well as relives the communication burden caused by homomorphic encryption. The simulation results, it can be seen that even under data attacks from malicious nodes, this method can effectively protect privacy information in information exchange while ensuring the convergence of energy management.
