Abstract: The power grid is a vital infrastructure in modern society, essential for ensuring public safety and welfare. As it increasingly relies on digital technologies for its operation, it becomes more vulnerable to sophisticated cyber threats. These threats, if successful, could disrupt the grid’s functionality, leading to severe consequences. To mitigate these risks, it is crucial to develop effective protective measures, such as intrusion detection systems and decision support systems, that can detect and respond to cyber attacks. Machine learning methods have shown great promise in this area, but their effectiveness is often limited by the scarcity of high-quality data, primarily due to confidentiality and access issues.
