CyberSatDigital (May 10-12, Virtual)

CyberSatDigital

Through a combination of digital and in-person experiences, CyberSat events provide a unique and powerful opportunity for the cybersecurity community to better understand the most pressing threat vectors with the intent to prevent cyberattacks.

Taking place online May 10 – 12, CyberSatDigital began the all-important conversation on how to identify bad actors, neutralize risks, and thwart threats on our assets in the satellite ecosystem.

The Aerospace Corporation served as event co-sponsor, contributed to multiple panels and hosted the CyberSatDigital classified day of programming.

Space ISAC’s Role in Security to the Global Space Sector

It’s essential to signal to our adversaries and competitors, and to cybercriminals that they cannot put space systems at risk successfully and that the security and resilience of these systems can be assured under all circumstances. The Mission of Space ISAC is to facilitate collaboration across the global space industry to enhance our ability to prepare for and respond to vulnerabilities, incidents, and threats facing our space systems and the critical infrastructure they comprise. The panel will discuss the technical, policy, and implementation challenges of protecting that infrastructure and the policy decisions, such as designating these systems as a sector of the nation’s critical infrastructure.
