Question 5: In the context of smart grid communication, what is network slicing and how does it benefit grid optimization?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It eliminates the need for multiple devices to communicate with the central grid by relying on a single network path

It reduces the network capacity by limiting the number of virtual network slices available

It combines multiple physical networks into a single communication path to reduce data congestion

It allows for the creation of virtual networks tailored to specific needs, ensuring efficient data traffic management

Question 6: How do you manage security in hybrid smart grid environments that incorporate both public and private networks?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By focusing only on private networks and ignoring public network risks

By excluding public networks from smart grid integration to mitigate risks

By using encryption, secure communication protocols, and network segmentation for hybrid network security

By assuming hybrid networks will automatically secure themselves
