In a world increasingly dependent on green energy and interconnected systems, the energy security has become a top priority. Smart grid technology is one of the most important green innovations in this area. It promises efficient energy management and an increased use of renewable resources. However, given the various vulnerabilities in smart grids and the history of cyber-attacks on energy systems, securing their communications is becoming more important than ever. This article examines the importance of securing smart grid information systems. It also explores the similarities in structure and function between multi-agent systems and an interconnected Microgrids network in a smart grid environment. In addition, different types of cyber threats to smart grid information systems are discussed and various existing approaches for detecting and mitigating these attacks are outlined. The paper concludes by suggesting that the use of Multi-Agent Systems principles in smart grid information systems can lead to innovative solutions for addressing their collaboration security challenges in the face of cyber threats, thus contributing to a greener and more resilient future.
