Virtual Partnership for Global Sustainability (PGS) Workshop – January 27, 2021
Cybersecurity (to include Critical Infrastructure Protection, Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity at Space Related Ground Facilities)

Space systems and their associated infrastructure and ground systems may be vulnerable to multiple types of natural and manmade threats. Critical Infrastructure can be defined as that handling essential goods (e.g. water, energy, food, confidential information) and/or services. A central part of ensuring a sustainable space sector is the identification and mitigation of threats to critical infrastructure and data systems. This session will discuss systems engineering and risk assessment techniques, threats and solutions to critical infrastructure, water, energy, cyber and data security for the space sector and the prioritization of investments to address resilience under uncertainty.
