Grid Resiliency and Systems Analysis:o Modeling and simulation of 14 bus system to observe the effects of attack against power systems using SEL device logic as referenceo Design of "substation testbed" with Rockwell Automation PLC, OSHMI, NI LabView, and RPi3 (malicious agent)o Performed vulnerability assessment utilizing asset rank algorithm along with attack tree/attack graph model of 14 bus systemConfiguration Security:o Investigate impact of poorly configured systems in commercial IoT, industrial IoT, and DoD assets.o Developed software reverse engineering techniques to discover vendor/integrator implementation of standards, protocols, and security recommendations for threat discovery

• Worked on wide-area networked microgrids using data collected from the Smart Grid Testbed.• Conducted Research into IEC/IEEE substation communication standards, exposing vulnerabilities in the protocol.• Performed vulnerability assessment of ABB Relion 615 IEDs, and investigated machine learning techniques for real-time intrusion detection.• Gained hands on experience with Merging Units (MUs), Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs), and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) Systems.
