Since the mid 1950s, satellite communication systems have made enormous advances in capability and performance. Internet access over satellite, digital content distribution, wide area network (WAN) connectivity, video teleconferencing, distance learning, and telephony services sent over satellites have become integral to our society. Unfortunately, security has not kept pace where the current systems are vulnerable to a variety of attacks.
This presentation will discuss about satellite technologies for providing broadband data communications using Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) network system, how they work, and what is possible and not possible for determined opponents to achieve.
