Războiul cyber din spațiu: Cum apără românii sateliții Europei de atacuri

For the first time, a mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) is entirely led by a private company based in Romania, GMV. The CyberCUBE satellite aims to investigate cybersecurity threats to European spacecraft. This small satellite serves as a testing platform for future technologies and algorithms that will be used in upcoming ESA missions. GMV Romania has managed project oversight and system engineering, including software integration and launch services with SpaceX. The company also develops technologies for planetary defense missions and emphasizes the dual-use potential of space technologies for both civilian and military applications. Challenges in recruiting skilled professionals persist, particularly in system engineering roles, but the company is open to training and internships for new talent.
