Cyber Security in Energy Informatics: A Non-technical Perspective

TL;DR

This paper reviews non-technical aspects of cyber security in energy informatics, emphasizing issues like education, policy, and human factors to complement technical measures and improve overall security strategies.

Contribution

It provides a comprehensive literature review highlighting seven key non-technical issues in cyber security within energy informatics, an area often overlooked in technocentric research.

Findings

Seven non-technical issues identified: education, awareness, policy, standards, human factors, risks, and challenges.

Highlights the importance of non-technical issues for researchers, managers, and policymakers.

Offers insights to enhance holistic cyber security strategies in energy informatics.

Abstract

Literature in cyber security including cyber security in energy informatics are tecnocentric focuses that may miss the chances of understanding a bigger picture of cyber security measures. This research thus aims to conduct a literature review focusing on non-technical issues in cyber security in the energy informatics field. The findings show that there are seven non-technical issues have been discussed in literature, including education, awareness, policy, standards, human, and risks, challenges, and solutions. These findings can be valuable for not only researchers, but also managers, policy makers, and educators.
