Popis: Smart Grids are an area where next-generation technologies, applications, architectures, and approaches are utilized. These grids involve equipping and managing electrical systems with information and communication technologies. Equipping and managing electrical systems with information and communication technologies, developing data-driven solutions, and integrating them with Internet of Things (IoT) applications are among the significant applications of Smart Grids. As dynamic systems, Smart Grids embody symmetrical principles in their utilization of next-generation technologies and approaches. The symmetrical integration of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and energy harvesting techniques not only enhances the resilience and reliability of Smart Grids but also ensures a balanced and harmonized energy management system. WSNs carry the potential to enhance various aspects of Smart Grids by offering energy efficiency, reliability, and cost-effective solutions. These networks find applications in various domains including power generation, distribution, monitoring, control management, measurement, demand response, pricing, fault detection, and power automation. Smart Grids hold a position among critical infrastructures, and without ensuring their cybersecurity, they can result in national security vulnerabilities, disruption of public order, loss of life, or significant economic damage. Therefore, developing security approaches against cyberattacks in Smart Grids is of paramount importance. This study examines the literature on “Cybersecurity with WSN in Smart Grids,” presenting a systematic review of applications, challenges, and standards. Our goal is to demonstrate how we can enhance cybersecurity in Smart Grids with research collected from various sources. In line with this goal, recommendations for future research in this field are provided, taking into account symmetrical principles.
