This white paper lays out some of the key drivers
of a sharpened focus on security in the context of the Smart Grid
and presents the functional requirements for system security in the
wide-area aggregation networks (WANs) used as the platform for
Smart Grid communications. It then outlines the underlying design
principles of the GridCom security architecture and explains how
GridCom addresses these functional requirements for WAN security.
