Abstract: One of the main concerns in development and operation of mission‐critical systems is system security. It is of critical importance to properly specify and implement system security requirements. In this paper, we apply a system security requirements analysis method to elicit, specify, categorize, and prioritize the system security requirements on the smart grid as a complex system‐of‐systems case study. In particular, we apply the Security Quality Requirements Engineering (SQUARE) method as a representative system security requirements analysis method. The main contributions of this research are the smart grid customer domain security requirements specification and its analysis from the system‐of‐systems perspective. We elicited a large proportion of system and system‐of‐systems vulnerabilities and requirements, and used them to specify secure smart grid intersystem interactions.
