The invention discloses a method for realizing encrypted
authentication of a distribution
automation remote control command. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) digitally signing a
remote control message, and generating a key pair by a main
station; (2) storing a private key by the main
station and issuing a public key to a power distribution terminal; (3) storing the public key by the power distribution terminal; (4) signing by using the private key by the main
station; (5) verifying the signature by using the public key by the power distribution terminal; and (6) sending out an actuating
signal from the distribution terminal to a switch. The method comprises that: the main station generates the key pair periodically or randomly through manual triggering by using an asymmetric cryptographic
algorithm, stores the private key locally, and sends the public key to the power distribution terminal through a
public network; the power distribution terminal stores the received public key locally; the main station when sending the
remote control command to the power distribution terminal firstly generates a signature for the remote control message by using the private key, and then attaches the signature at the
tail end of the remote control message; and the terminal when receiving the
remote control command verifies the signature on the remote control message by using the public key, then carries out the switching action after the successful signature
verification, and refuses the action if the signature
verification is failed. The method for realizing encrypted
authentication of the distribution
automation remote control command has strong practicability, and enhances reliability and safety of the remote control.
