ABSTRACT:
Smart grids are becoming more and more significant as more nations adopt the smart city concept and boost energy sector efficiency to create a more sustainable and secure future. However, it is critical to address the security issues with smart grids. Security and privacy are essential components of SG communication. Recently, the LSPA-SGs scheme was created, and according to its creators, it is an effective and secure protocol. We reviewed their scheme and observed that it does not provide security and privacy. It contain some security vulnerabilities; user anonymity, stolen-verifier attack, password guessing attack, physical attack, privileged insider attack, user impersonation attack. This study exposed the weaknesses of Susan A. Mohammed et al design's and demonstrated how many security issues allowed for powerful attacks
