PAST SESSIONS

Securing Satellite Communications with SDLS Protocol

April 24th 2024, 9:30 AM – 12:30 PM

Paris

By Ignacio Aguilar Sanchez, ESA/ESTEC

In the last edition of the CYSAT Academy, we focused on the security of satellite operations through the Space Data Link Security (SDLS) protocol. Designed by the Consultative Committee of Space Data Systems (CCSDS) and led by agencies such as NASA and ESA, SDLS is the most secure way to operate satellites, ensuring data confidentiality, authenticity, and integrity.

The workshop provided space professionals with hands-on learning on SDLS, including detailed specifications, configuration, and real-world applications in current space missions. It was a great opportunity for engineers to deepen their understanding of space communication security and implement SDLS in real-world scenarios.

Enhancing Space Internet with Advanced Cybersecurity Solutions

27th February 2025, 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Singapore

By Patrick Trinkler, CYSEC in collaboration with SG Innovate and SSTL

As the demand for global connectivity via space-based internet grows, securing these networks against sophisticated cyber threats has become a critical priority. This workshop examines how advanced cybersecurity technologies can fortify space internet infrastructure, ensuring robust, secure, and reliable communication.

Participants explored key challenges in protecting satellite communication, such as eavesdropping, spoofing, and quantum-era threats. The session introduced innovative solutions, including end-to-end encryption, post-quantum cryptography, and quantum key distribution (QKD), showcasing their potential to safeguard data transmissions in space and terrestrial networks.
