UC – Space Security

While transitioning from the government-dominated “Old Space” to the private sector focused “New Space”, old cybersecurity challenges are joined by a plethora of new concerns. From setting the stage and reviewing specific case studies to utilizing the MITRE ATT@CK-based SPARTA framework, you’ll see space security in a whole new light.

By the end of this UC, you should have a better understanding of and be able to:

  • Recognize the vulnerabilities introduced by “New Space” trends
  • Identify real-world space sector cyber incidents
  • Understand the unique requirements of spacecraft systems
  • Apply the phases of the attack lifecycle to space systems

Price = FREE!

For an amazing interactive learning experience that teaches how to build, design, and operate secure space systems by putting you in the driver's seat of a simulated satellite as attackers close in, check out the full-length Cybersecurity for Space Systems course at CT Cubed.

What’s an Upskill Challenge (UC)?

A UC is a CTF-style, bite-sized lesson from the JHT Team, our courseware developers as well as “friends” of JHT. They are meant to be short and to the point. UCs focus on a single tool or concept and are helpful in quickly providing useful skills that might be prerequisites for other types of educational content on the platform.

A UC should be 10 – 30 minutes of student time and have no VMs. There are quizzes to make sure that the content is understood.

Prerequisites for “UC – Space Security”

UCs assume no knowledge at all! They’re meant to be completely self-contained, so all of the answers are in the lesson. No outside research is required.
