Space ISAC Tabletop Exercise

🛰️ About the Exercise

Join Space ISAC for a dynamic, scenario-driven Tabletop Exercise (TTX) examining real-world threats to space systems architecture across all segments — from ground infrastructure to on-orbit assets. Participants will work through complex security situations that challenge detection, operational decision-making, and cross-sector coordination under pressure.

Through facilitated discussion, commercial operators, government stakeholders, and space and cybersecurity leaders will explore information sharing, response strategies, and architectural resilience — strengthening collective preparedness across the global space enterprise.

🎟️ Registration & Pricing

The Space ISAC TTX is an add-on workshop to CyberSat 2026 registration. A separate fee applies to participate. Register early to lock in the lower rate.

A valid CyberSat 2026 registration is required to add the TTX. Select the TTX add-on during registration at accessintel.swoogo.com/cybersat26.

🎯 Exercise Objectives

The Space ISAC TTX is designed to address five core objectives, each targeting a critical dimension of space system security and resilience:

• 1

  Evaluate Detection and Response Across Space System Architecture

  • Examine how organizations identify and attribute interference, spoofing, cyber compromise, and launch anomalies.
  • Assess visibility across space, ground, and user segments during incidents or attacks.
• 2

  Strengthen Cross-Sector Coordination and Information Sharing

  • Explore how commercial operators, government agencies, and international partners share actionable information in real time.
  • Identify friction points in reporting, classification, legal authorities, and public communication.
• 3

  Test Decision-Making Under Escalating Conditions

  • Evaluate decision-making processes during uncertain and potentially hostile events.
  • Examine thresholds for public disclosure, regulatory reporting, mission continuation, and coordinated response.
• 4

  Identify Architectural and Operational Resilience Gaps

  • Highlight dependencies on GPS and other critical space services.
  • Surface potential single points of failure across ground infrastructure, command and control, and launch operations.
  • Identify opportunities to build redundancy, segmentation, and defensive depth into space systems architecture.
• 5

  Advance Collective Preparedness and Best Practices

  • Capture lessons learned to inform Space ISAC community guidance, industry standards, and government collaboration efforts.
  • Reinforce trusted relationships across the global space and cybersecurity community.

👥 Who Should Participate

The TTX is designed for senior practitioners and decision-makers across the space and cybersecurity community. Participants do not need prior tabletop experience — only a commitment to collaborative problem-solving under realistic conditions.
