“An IDSC Collaboration: NASA’s Strategic Move to Enhance Satellite Security
NASA’s science programs often engage academic institutions to explore national challenges leading to research efforts that produce insights and strategic solutions.
Dr. Yelena Yesha, a Knight Foundation Endowed Chair, Professor of Computer Science, and Director of IDSC AI and Machine Learning, was approached by NASA to help address this critical issue. What resulted is a project to investigate the efficacy of emerging zero trust architectures for small satellite networks and to facilitate the translation of recent research to meet the needs of a growing security problem.”
