Ground Station Cybersecurity: Why Your Satellite's Biggest Risk Is on the Ground

When it comes to satellite security, it’s a lot easier to attack when your target is on the ground rather than in orbit. Ground station cybersecurity, the practice of protecting the antennas, control centers, and software that command satellites and receive their data, is where many incidents begin. A

4 Hardware Components Behind SpaceComputer's Satellite Architecture

By 2027, several orbital compute platforms will be live. Most will depend on their single compute chip vendor never being compromised. Once a satellite is in orbit, that dependency is permanent. The hardware choices made before launch determine whether the system can be trusted, as there is no way to

Making Orbitport Verifiable: Reproducible Builds, Docker Hardened Images, and Attested TLS

Introduction In our previous post, Orbitport: The Gateway to Space, we introduced Orbitport as SpaceComputer’s universal gateway between Earth and in-space infrastructure: a developer-friendly API layer that abstracts away ground-station scheduling, intermittent orbital connectivity, satellite-specific integrations, and the operational complexity of communicating with hardware in

Space Fabric: What you need to know

We are building the standard hardware and software architecture for computing and the space internet in orbit. Every secure computing chip protecting financial transactions, cloud workloads, and government data today has the same vulnerability: it can be physically accessed on Earth. Given enough time and physical access, an attacker can

Why Use Proof of Execution Triangulation for Space Compute

When you send a photo to a cloud AI service, you trust that it's processed in a specific data center in a specific country. AWS US-East-1 is a classic example. But how do you verify your compute workload ran in a specific data center? And for

What are Trusted Execution Environments & Comparing the Top 5 TEEs.

Introduction to Trusted Execution Environments Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) are one of the most widely deployed security primitives in modern computing, and also one of the least understood outside security circles. They are the reason you can run sensitive code on a cloud provider you do not own, pass cryptographic

The Post-Quantum Cryptographic Expiration Date on Every Satellite You're Launching

There are approximately 14,000 satellites in orbit right now. US Congress just introduced the Satellite Cybersecurity Act. Fewer than 5% of enterprises around the world have a post-quantum transition plan, and Google recently moved its internal post-quantum deadline forward to 2029. Every organization needs a post-quantum
