Space infrastructure is simultaneously the most strategically critical and the least cyber-secured domain in modern defence and commerce. Military communications, intelligence gathering, precision navigation, financial transaction timing, and global internet connectivity all depend on orbital assets whose ground segments, uplinks, and control systems carry significant cyber vulnerabilities. State adversaries are investing heavily in counter-space capabilities, and cyber attack is the most accessible and deniable of them.
This four-day advanced programme gives security professionals, defence planners, space programme operators, and government advisers the depth of knowledge to understand the cyber threat to space systems, assess satellite exploitation methodologies, design resilient ground segment architectures, and engage with space law and governance frameworks. It bridges the gap between cyber security expertise and space domain knowledge.
Explain space system architecture from a cyber security perspective, identifying the key vulnerabilities in each segment.
Analyse documented satellite exploitation attacks and the methodologies used by state adversaries.
Design cyber-resilient ground segment architectures for military and commercial satellite operators.
Assess GPS spoofing risks to critical infrastructure and evaluate alternative positioning architectures.
Apply space law and governance frameworks to cyber attack scenarios in the orbital domain.
Lead space cyber security programme design for an operator or government agency.
Senior professional experience in cyber security, defence planning, space programme operations, or government advisory roles.
Familiarity with cyber security fundamentals and the geopolitical context of state adversary capabilities.
A background in space systems engineering is not required.

Not everyone learns best in a group. If you want focused guidance, faster clarity, and confidence you can use on the job, our 1-to-1 Fast-Track Training gives you private, mentor-led support tailored to your experience and goals.
"Many learners choose 1-to-1 when they want understanding, not memorisation."
Everything you need to know about the certification exams
You will receive an Xcademia certificate of completion based on participation and successful completion of labs and scenario simulations.
Everything you need to know about this course
No. The course introduces space system architecture from first principles for cyber and security professionals. The focus is on understanding the security implications of space architecture, not on engineering design.
