Title

Hacking satellites

Goal

White-hat hacking of satellite

Description

This interesting online article https://www.theregister.com/2023/08/11/satellite_hacking_black_hat/ and accompanying talk https://www.blackhat.com/us-23/briefings/schedule/#houston-we-have-a-problem-analyzing-the-security-of-low-earth-orbit-satellites-32468 https://i.blackhat.com/BH-US-23/Presentations/US-23-Willbold-HoustonWehaveaProblem.pdf shows that hacking low earth orbit satellites is worryingly easy. In this project, you will either analyse the reasons and mitigations for this (for students on business courses) or explore white-hat hacking of satellites for yourself (for students studying programming).
