Detection and prevention systems

CyberS&D is interested in researching and developing systems that detect and prevent active cyberattacks. Modern attacks use a range of attack surfaces and vector mechanisms including:

Ground Control Systems & VPNs — Attackers compromise enterprise or vendor networks to send malicious updates or commands to ground-control modems.

Command-and-control (C&C) Uplinks/Downlinks — Unsecured data and command interfaces allow attackers to perform command injections, firmware tapping, payload hijacking and signal spoofing.

Intersatellite Links (ISLs) & Lateral Movement — Modern satellite constellations use automated intersatellite links for high-speed data relay. If a single node or satellite is compromised, automated routing and shared control architectures can let malware or malicious instructions laterally propagate across the fleet.

Link-Flooding & Jamming Campaigns — Attackers use public orbital tracking data to predict satellite positions, beam paths, and handoffs. Global botnets can then inject high-volume traffic or flood low-capacity satellite links, causing denial-of-service or stealthy network congestion.

Payload & Data Manipulation — Rather than crashing a satellite, sophisticated operations alter imaging payloads, redirect data streams, falsify GPS/GNSS coordinates, or corrupt weather and intelligence feeds to mislead real-world operations while making the system appear healthy to operators.

CyberS&D has interests in the development and deployment of security protocols and defense mechanisms for all of the above.

CyberS&D has interests in the safe and secure development of modern data centres. We also have interests in the appropriate access to, and use, of modern technology.

CyberS&D has interests in the research and development of fundamental physics and matter behind advanced technologies and their effects.
