Draft NIST IR 8441: Hybrid Satellite Network (HSN) Cybersecurity Framework Profile Open for Public Comment | NIST

NIST has published a draft cybersecurity framework profile for hybrid satellite networks (HSN) for public comment. The profile aims to help organizations better understand and mitigate risks in space systems used by critical infrastructure, defense, and government missions. Key aspects include cataloging risks, implementing security measures throughout the HSN lifecycle, and continuous monitoring and improvement.

The public comment period for NIST IR 8441 is open until July 5, 2023. Stakeholders are encouraged to provide feedback to help shape the final profile. The profile will provide a common understanding of risks and mitigation strategies as the space sector transitions to more independently-operated segments.
