The modern smart grid is a development of traditional power grids that incorporates information and communication technology to deliver electricity from suppliers to consumers to improve reliability, efficiency, infrastructure, power system availability, sophisticated metering technology, and energy management approaches. Because smart grids connect millions of devices - wired and wireless, data transmission becomes increasingly complicated and exposed to hackers. In this paper, we reviewed the MITRE ATT&CK architecture, highlighted smart grid vulnerabilities, described the SCADA system, and looked at the primary attacks that may compromise the smart grid system. The security mechanisms that can be employed in smart grids to prevent attackers from gaining access to the system and to secure communications from eavesdropping and other forms of information theft are also discussed. Lastly, cryptographic method is discussed on the issue of securing data communication in smart grids.
