Satellites"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WASHINGTON \u2013 Government and commercial satellite operators are increasingly the target of hackers, who are looking for inexpensive, but effective ways to limit space capabilities, according to a new report from <a href=\"https:\/\/swfound.org\/news\/all-news\/2018\/04\/swf-releases-new-report-on-global-counterspace-capabilities\" title=\"\" class=\"\">the Secure World Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA growing number of non-state actors are actively probing commercial satellite systems and discovering cyber vulnerabilities that are similar in nature to those found in non-space systems,\u201d the report read. \u201cThis indicates that manufacturers and developers of space systems may not yet have reached the same level of cyber hardness as other sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report, released April 10 and titled \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/space\/2018\/04\/11\/how-the-threat-to-satellites-is-changing\/\" title=\"\" class=\"\">Global Counterspace Capabilities: An Open Source Assessment<\/a>,\u201d points, among other vulnerabilities, to backdoors in Chinese electronics and Russian software packages used in the aerospace supply chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The authors, Victoria Samson and Brian Weeden, note that industry experts say that \u201cdespite some increase in awareness of the threat in recent years, the state of cybersecurity for satellite infrastructure remains dismal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chinese hackers have been targeting cyber espionage operations at the U.S. and European satellite industry since at least 2007, the report said. More broadly, cyber attacks have included targeting command and control or data relay stations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Techniques could include \u201cfly-overs with manned aircraft, unmanned aerial systems (UAS), or weather balloons; signal disruption or hijacking through proximate positioning of broadcasting equipment using a more powerful signal, tapping the structure\u2019s Internet or Ethernet cables, or piggybacking off of the station\u2019s own data relays physical access, through either covert infiltration or social engineering; and network exploitation or attack, using traditional means,\u201d the authors said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While most satellite facilities are hardened against such attacks, the report notes that \u201csophisticated State attackers\u201d have penetrated such systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, hackers are also trying to exploit the terminals used to process the satellite signal. Using public information, the report cites cases of using very small aperture terminals, or VSATs, were penetrated because factory passwords were never changed. In another example, students were able to essentially recreate a denial-of-service attack on a GPS receiver. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Government and commercial satellite operators are increasingly the target of hackers, who are looking for inexpensive, but effective ways to limit space capabilities, according to a new report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":32254,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":39,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":{"10":{"categories":["military-space-report","newsletters","space-symposium","digital-show-dailies","digital-show-daily"],"primary_category":"space-symposium"}}},"categories":[8,10,106,32,39],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3361],"class_list":["post-11527","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-c2-comms","category-cyber","category-daily-brief","category-newsletters","category-satellites"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"3MCFS3NEKFBGHJ5OA32YHVM4PM","arc_canonical_url":"\/dod\/2018\/04\/11\/a-new-target-for-hackers-satellites\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>A new target for hackers?
