Earlier this year, CNES published its Cybersecurity Hygiene Guide for Orbital Systems, and we’re taking a closer look at one of its key elements: the regulatory map we helped create to guide space stakeholders through evolving European and international requirements.
With the EU Space Act proposal published in late June 2025, this framework is more relevant to understand the ecosystem clearly.

Rather than just being a list of rules, this framework brings together:
🌍 Leading international cybersecurity standards
🇪🇺 European and 🇫🇷 French legislative frameworks
💡 Practical insights and lessons learned from across the space sector

Why does this matter?
Because as cyber-threats grow more sophisticated and regulations evolve, space operators need a clear, reliable reference point. This framework helps them anticipate change, stay compliant, and speak the same “security language” across the entire ecosystem.
In an era where space is both a frontier and a target, having a shared regulatory foundation is key to safeguarding sovereignty and building resilience.

A huge thank you to CNES for their trust, and to every contributor who helped shape this essential step for the future of space cybersecurity.

Yesterday, the European Commission published the long-awaited proposal for the EU Space Act, establishing a comprehensive regulatory framework to strengthen the resilience, safety, and sustainability of space activities across the Union.

🛰️ 📢 🚀 CyberInflight is proud to have contributed its space cybersecurity expertise to this critical initiative! We sincerely thank the European Commission for referencing our work on page 6 of the proposal on the impact assessment report.

A particularly important element of the EU Space Act is its strong focus on cybersecurity. Space operators will be required to carry out lifecycle risk assessments, apply tailored cybersecurity measures, and establish proper incident reporting protocols. This is a clear recognition that cyber-threats are now a fundamental challenge to space systems, and must be addressed with the same level of rigor as physical and operational risks.

Last week, CyberInflight took part in the EU Space ISAC Board and General Meetings held in Madrid.

As a founding member of the EU Space Information Sharing and Analysis Centre (EU Space), we are proud to collaborate with fellow members and institutions dedicated to enhancing the cybersecurity and resilience of the EU space ecosystem.

Cochaired by the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Defence Industry and Space (EUDEFIS) and EUSPA – EU Agency for the Space Programme, those meetings marked a pivotal step forward in strengthening cooperation and fostering information-sharing across the European space community.

Florent RIZZO and Valentine Crepineau took the floor to present CyberInflight’s activities within the ISAC in more detail, as we remain firmly committed to safeguarding Europe’s critical space infrastructure and contributing to a secure, united response to emerging threats.

Dans un contexte géopolitique marqué par des tensions croissantes et par l’essor du numérique, la cybersécurité des infrastructures spatiales est plus cruciale que jamais. Ce guide, accompagné d’un référentiel normatif dédié, représente une avancée majeure pour garantir un niveau de protection homogène au sein de l’écosystème spatial français. CyberInflight a eu l’honneur de travailler avec le CNES sur cette mission, en rencontrant les acteurs du secteur lors d’interviews et d’un atelier de réflexion collective qui s’est tenu à Paris, pour recueillir leurs impressions et besoins.

Le guide vise à instaurer des bonnes pratiques pour réduire le nombre d’attaques cyber et s’appuie sur des référentiels reconnus ainsi que les retours d’expérience de l’écosystème spatial français. En complément, le référentiel normatif rassemble les principaux standards internationaux et les cadres législatifs européens et français, permettant aux acteurs du spatial d’anticiper les évolutions réglementaires et de garantir la conformité de leurs systèmes. Cette approche vise à renforcer la souveraineté française en matière de cybersécurité spatiale et à harmoniser les pratiques pour mieux contrer les menaces émergentes.

Comme le souligne Lionel Suchet dans la préface du guide : « Nos systèmes spatiaux ne peuvent plus être protégés par leur isolement ou par une technologie exclusive à quelques organisations. Ces nouvelles menaces nécessitent une réponse adaptée. »

🛰️ Présenté lors de la conférence CYSAT les 14 et 15 mai 2025, ce guide est désormais accessible en ligne (en français et en anglais). Nous remercions chaleureusement le CNES pour sa confiance, ainsi que tous les partenaires et contributeurs impliqués dans cette mission essentielle.

Par ailleurs, afin de poursuivre cet engagement commun au service de l’écosystème, une nouvelle étape se prépare avec l’élaboration d’un Guide d’Hygiène Cybersécurité dédié aux Systèmes de Lancement, qui sera publié prochainement par le CNES. À suivre très bientôt !

N’hésitez pas à partager vos impressions et questions !

A huge thank you to the organizers for putting together such an insightful event. It was amazing to see the entire ecosystem gathered in one place, sharing knowledge and fostering collaborations.

📢 Big shout-out to everyone who stopped by our booth! We had some fantastic discussions and genuinely appreciate your interest and engagement. And yes, we had the best goodies at the conference – mugs and stickers featuring our ginger cat, and mini Armagnac bottles! 😺

🌟 Highlights of the event:
1️⃣The release of the Orbital System Cybersecurity Hygiene Guide by the CNES. A must-read for anyone in the field!
2️⃣Matthias POPOFF’s panel on the “Overview of the Russian Threat Landscape” was incredibly informative. He highlighted a pragmatic centralized approach to cybersecurity constrained by a lack of human resources, a defensive and offensive focus on the signal segment, and an increasing specialization in information security applied to the space industry since the beginning of the 2020s.
3️⃣Florent RIZZO moderated a thought-provoking panel on “The Jungle of Space Security Standards and Regulations” with 🛰️ William F. , Jessie Hamill-Stewart, John Irving, Mehdi Ayari, and Scott McCormick. The insights shared were extremely valuable for navigating the complex landscape of space security.

We look forward to next year’s conference! 🛰️
