Satellites quietly power so much of modern life — from the way we communicate to how our food is grown — yet most of us rarely think about how vulnerable they can be. As more satellites crowd into orbit, the risks are rising.

Deloitte has introduced Silent Shield, a new system designed to spot cyber intrusions and anomalies in near real time. It’s already been tested aboard the “Deloitte-1” satellite launched earlier this year.

I recently got the chance to talk to Ryan Roberts, a cyber leader in Deloitte’s Space practice, to talk about why securing space infrastructure is becoming critical and how Silent Shield aims to protect the services we rely on every day.
