SPARTA, a taxonomy of potential cyber threats to spacecraft and space missions, was recently enhanced with new updates. Check out the details of the v1.6 release! Highlights on this update are: *Added mappings to NASA's Space Security: Best Practices Guide which is HERE *Updated Notional Risk Scores page to better explain the process *Using SPARTA to Conduct Space Vehicle Cyber Assessments presentation now available *New references added across 70 SPARTA techniques and all 9 tactics #theaerospacecorporation #gettingitright #space #engineers #satellites #aerospace #missionassurance #SPARTA #SpaceAttackResearch #TacticAnalysis 

At the end of last month a Space Industry Statement was released in support of International commitments to NOT conduct destructive anti-satellite testing. this was voted 155 in favour to 9 against. Acknowledging this and highlighting that the majority of the countries are not ok with anti-satellite testing might prevent future dangerous tests from happening. #antisatellite #spacesecurity #space #cybersecurity #satellites https://lnkd.in/eqEdvxc8

MAIT and supply chain security in advance manufacturing. This presentation will highlight issues all supply chains have over time that inherit legacy and heterogeneous systems.

Implementing tokenisation throughout NASA’s processes, from design and development to operations and data handling, could provide robust protection against the escalating cyber threats targeting space missions. It aligns well with the goals of the proposed Spacecraft Cybersecurity Act, ensuring that cybersecurity measures are embedded from the start and throughout the lifecycle of space missions. This approach could set a new standard for securing critical infrastructure and technological assets in space exploration. #tokenisationresilience #tokenisationforthepeople Zortrex https://lnkd.in/eZhHQuJx

A Giant Leap for Public-Private Collaboration: The Odyssey of the Odysseus Moon Lander The recent successful landing of the Odysseus Moon Lander, built by private company Intuitive Machines, marks a historic moment for space exploration. Not only was it the first US spacecraft to touch down on the lunar surface in 50 years, but it also signifies a paradigm shift in how we approach this endeavor. While the landing itself was a triumph, it wasn't without its challenges. Shortly after touchdown, the lander unexpectedly tipped over. However, this didn't stop it from continuing its mission, sending back valuable data and breathtaking images. This event highlights the growing capabilities and potential of private companies like Intuitive Machines to contribute meaningfully to space exploration. Their innovative landing system and the success of the mission pave the way for further collaboration between the public and private sector. Imagine the possibilities: Accelerating the pace of discovery: Combining expertise and resources can lead to faster advancements in technology and scientific understanding. Unlocking the potential of the moon: Studying the lunar environment and potential resources could unlock new opportunities for energy, materials, and even human habitation. Inspiring a new generation: This mission serves as a powerful reminder of the human spirit of exploration and innovation, potentially attracting new talent to the field. The lessons learned from the Odysseus mission are invaluable. The incident emphasizes the need for continuous research and development in areas like landing systems, navigation, and autonomous operation. This will pave the way for safer, more reliable, and cost-effective future missions. As industry experts, we stand at the precipice of a new era in space exploration. The Odysseus mission serves as a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation. Let's leverage this momentum to propel us further, towards a future where the possibilities are truly out of this world. #privatespaceexploration #collaboration #moonshot #Odysseus #spaceindustry #futureofwork To learn more about the future of space exploration and other cutting-edge topics, visit Guidescope.info.
