NASA missions are some of the most technologically advanced and critically important endeavours. From the Mars Rover explorations to the Artemis missions to the moon, the space agency's projects push the boundaries of science and technology. However, these missions are also prime targets for cyber-attacks.
In a bold move to counter the escalating threat of these attacks, U.S. congressmen Maxwell Alejandro Frost and Don Beyer have proposed the Spacecraft Cybersecurity Act. If passed, the legislation would mandate NASA to overhaul the way it procures and builds its spacecraft.
