Technical Poster Session 4

Location

Utah State University, Logan, UT

Abstract

The biggest threat to US space capability is not foreign adversaries–it is a potential attack on the networks that keep us connected. Unfortunately, many satellites were designed in an era when cyber threats were not such a concern. The Pentagon's traditional method of defining program-specific requirements, redirecting budgets, and embarking on a five-year development trek is slowly catching up but SpiderOak's OrbitSecure can accelerate this by meeting urgent mission needs for new capabilities as well as retrofitting existing systems which SpiderOak recently proved on-orbit.
