The U.S. intelligence community is warning the domestic space industry of the growing risk of espionage and satellite attacks from China, Russia and other adversaries.
U.S. space-related companies are at risk of “cyberattacks, strategic investment , the targeting of key supply chain nodes and other techniques to gain access to the space industry,” says aby the National Counterintelligence and Security Center, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Air Force on Friday.
The warning, which says such foreign intelligence operations pose a risk to company secrets as well as “disrupting and degrading US satellite communications, remote sensing and imaging capabilities,” comes after several recent attacks on satellites and growing recognition that both the U.S. economy and national security increasingly rely on space.
China and Russia historically dismiss allegations that they have carried out hacking and other attempts to infiltrate or disrupt space systems. The Chinese and Russian embassies in Washington didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
