Back to all publications

Publication date:February 15, 2024

This report explores the cybersecurity of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations providing telecommunications services (LEO satcom). Examining various threats and risks-technical, financial, or commercial the landscape of potential attacks is vast. It includes traditional cyber threats targeting user and control segments (terminals, gateways, telemetry tracking, command stations, and interconnection networks), extending to satellite-specific attacks. Consequently, LEO satcom systems require a tailored security approach.
