THE BIGGEST EUROPEAN EVENT ENTIRELY DEDICATED TO
Cybersecurity
for the space industry
MAY 14-15TH, 2025 - Paris, station f
Raising awareness about cybersecurity for space assets and data
In today’s society, we heavily rely on space-based assets, and considering the continuously evolving cyber threats in the current geopolitical environment, securing space data is a major challenge.
Since 2021, CYSEC has been organizing CYSAT to bring together all the players in the space cybersecurity domain.
Today, many critical ground services depend greatly on satellites to collect and transmit data. According to Allied Market Research, downstream services that rely on satellite data are expected to reach a market value of $19.36 billion by 2027, growing at an annual rate of 19.1%.
Ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of space data against cyber threats is a new challenge as satellites have historically been designed to be reliable but not secure.
Recent trends such as software-defined satellites, usage of COTS components, in-orbit reconfigurations, intelligence on board, quantum technologies, etc., are making space assets and data increasingly vulnerable to cyber-attacks.
- The main goal of CYSAT is to build a strong space cybersecurity ecosystem.
- Since 2021, we’ve been uniting the space and cybersecurity communities to boost synergies within an expanding European ecosystem that is facing a rising number of sophisticated cyber threats.
What to expect

Addressing Technical & Business Challenges
CYSAT has been designed to tackle both the technical complexities of space cybersecurity and the related business challenges of the industry.
Join us for a 2-day event featuring engaging keynotes and panels, offering in-depth discussions on various topics, mainly targeting space engineers. Our lineup includes space industry leaders, hackers, and cybersecurity experts addressing the latest trends related to space assets and data security.
CYSAT brings together industry professionals from the space sector for networking experiences. Connect with like-minded individuals through personalized 1-to-1 meetings facilitated by our interactive application. Plus, don’t miss out on the networking cocktail on the first evening of the event.
These technical demonstrations, primarily led by engineers, aim to showcase the latest technological innovations and products dedicated to satellite communication security.
