28 Jan The European Champions Alliance partners up with CYSEC & AP-Swiss on CYSAT’21
“Satellite operators can no longer ignore cyber risks when designing a new satellite or a new constellation. It needs to be integrated from the very start. Today we see a lack of awareness, expertise and European solutions available on the market. The goal of CYSAT is to bring all players and decision-makers together in order to accelerate the European response. Switzerland is in a perfect position to lead the efforts!”, said Mathieu Bailly, VP Space at CYSEC and member of the organizing committee of CYSAT’21. In regard to this eye-opening statement, the ECA is happy to partner up with CYSEC and AP-Swiss on CYSAT’21.
The event will take place from March 17-19th, 2021 and will attract key players from the European space industry in Davos, Switzerland, to share challenges and solutions related to cyber risks in Space. Due to restricting circumstances, CYSAT ’21 also offers participants the opportunity to follow the event online. The event will combine keynotes from ethical hackers and researchers on the risks, technical presentations on best practices and solutions to secure satellite communications as well as selected industrial leaders sharing their vision towards a European cyber resilience.
