Increasing Cyber Resilience of Space Infrastructure - Jessie Hamill-StewartTuesday 21st January 2025, 7.30pm - 9pm, Cornerstone Arts Centre, Didcot
Space has become critical to today’s modern world. Satellite systems, such as global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) provide positioning, navigation, and timing services on which critical industries increasingly rely, including finance, transportation and electricity. As a result, it has become more vulnerable to a variety of threats, including cyber attacks. Attackers may be motivated by the perceived gains of widespread disruption which would create ripples across multiple industries. In order to protect citizens against widespread disruption to everyday services, the state protects national space infrastructure and dependent systems against cyber attacks. Resilience is a crucial element of this, ensuring that infrastructure bounces back should a disaster occur.
This talk outlines the importance of cooperation in order to secure space infrastructure, as well as unique challenges and national resilience approaches.
