Title

Cybersecurity in space systems, risks and countermeasures

Description

With the rising of New Space and the emergence of commercial space industry increasingly digital and data-dependent, the management of cyber-related risks and protection against cyberattacks has become a priority requiring the identification and deployment of relevant cybersecurity measures and solutions. This session aims at raising awareness on several related topics: cybersecurity risks encountered by space systems; tools & methods aiming at preventing & forecasting cyberattacks; risks assessment and cyber intelligence; countermeasures and engineering approach to design and protect space systems, data and space-enabled solutions; dedicated training, information sharing and analysis; and cybersecurity standards on terrestrial systems and spaceflight operations to improve space systems resilience against cyber threats. New technologies and practices emerging in cybersecurity will also be presented such as the development of quantum cryptography and quantum key distribution or use of blockchain in space systems.
