Dive Summary:

• The utility’s goal in publicly releasing the framework is to promote smart meter security awareness and give users a tool for basic testing capabilities so security can be improved in the future.
• The Termineter can be used by power companies to identify and validate internal flaws that leave them open to fraud, but users must have knowledge of how the meter works in order to use the framework properly.
• Current modules allow the creation of tables from raw data, which can be used to start procedures, while additional modules permit higher-level access that can take information from the security, modem, and log tables.

From the article:

SecureState has announced the public release of the full open source code of Termineter, a framework that allows users to assess the security of smart meter utility meters over the optical interface. This is the first framework designed to give authorized individuals access to manipulate and test the security of smart meters.

A 'lite' version of the Termineter code with limited functionality was sent out to a select group of registrants initially; however, the full open source code, including all of the modules, can now be found on the SecureState Tools Page. ...
