Cybersecurity for Satellites — New Whitepaper from Anvil Secure and D-Orbit

Cybersecurity for Satellites — New Whitepaper from Anvil Secure and D-Orbit

The commercial space sector is scaling fast, and security needs to keep pace. In this new joint whitepaper, Anvil Secure and D-Orbit map the core cyber risks facing satellites and on-orbit operations, using D-Orbit’s ION SCV mission lifecycle as a concrete reference.

You’ll find practical threat models, likely attack paths, and mitigations security teams can apply now, with a focus on LEO environments and hosted-payload scenarios.
