Space ISAC

What Space ISAC does

Space ISAC (legally Space Information Sharing and Analysis Center) is a non-profit organization founded in 2019 and headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado, that operates as the dedicated information sharing and analysis center for the space sector. Its core function is to facilitate cybersecurity information sharing between public and private space-sector organizations, issuing real-time threat alerts (including Level 3 'High' alerts related to GNSS interference, spoofing, and as-a-service attack toolkits) and coordinating with government agencies such as CISA on critical infrastructure protection. The organization's underlying technology is an information sharing platform that supports Communities of Interest (COIs), including a specialized Quantum COI co-hosted with MITRE that focuses on quantum technology applications for space system security and resilience.

Space ISAC generates revenue through membership fees paid by companies in the space and aviation sectors, providing members with access to threat intelligence, COI participation, and cross-sector collaboration resources. Its go-to-market motion is community-led: it recruits members through industry events (such as CyberSat), co-hosts initiatives with institutional partners like MITRE, and cultivates a trusted network of security-conscious partners across the space and aviation ecosystems. Named customers/members include Gogo, a global multi-band in-flight connectivity provider that joined to bolster cross-sector resilience in space and aviation systems. The organization employs between 1 and 10 people and serves enterprise members in the space and aviation verticals, with its segmentation approach organized around vertical industry rather than company size.

Emerging players

• LeoLabs: Commercial provider of space situational awareness and orbital monitoring; an emerging commercial player offering threat-relevant data to space operators that could overlap with Space ISAC's domain awareness mission.
• Saber Astronautics: Space mission operations and SSA services company offering space situational awareness and threat monitoring; an emerging commercial player in the space-cyber and SSA category partially overlapping with Space ISAC's mandate.
• Slingshot Aerospace: Commercial space domain awareness and cybersecurity analytics company; an emerging commercial alternative providing space-cyber threat intelligence to operators and governments that competes for the same member mindshare as Space ISAC.
• Space-ISAC (Aviation ISAC / A-ISAC): Aerospace ISAC, focused on aviation and adjacent aerospace sectors; overlaps with Space ISAC's aviation cross-sector use case (e.g., Gogo membership) and competes for shared threat intelligence in space-adjacent domains.

Direct peers

• E-ISAC: Electricity Information Sharing and Analysis Center; an energy-sector ISAC operated under NERC that follows the same information sharing and analysis center model and serves as a structural template for Space ISAC.
• IT-ISAC: Information Technology Information Sharing and Analysis Center; a closely related ISAC covering IT and tech-sector firms, sharing the same community-driven threat intelligence model and member-based structure as Space ISAC.
• FS-ISAC: Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center; the canonical model for a sector-specific ISAC and the closest structural analog to Space ISAC's mission, operating model, and member-coordination approach.
• Health-ISAC: Health Information Sharing and Analysis Center; a peer ISAC operating in a different critical-infrastructure vertical but with an identical information sharing, threat alert, and community-of-interest model directly comparable to Space ISAC.

Broad incumbents

• CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency): U.S. federal agency that coordinates critical-infrastructure cybersecurity across all sectors, including space; the broader incumbent with which Space ISAC aligns and into which some of its functions could ultimately be absorbed.

Others

• MITRE Corporation: Federally funded R&D center that co-hosts the Space ISAC Quantum COI; not a direct competitor but a strategic partner and operator of multiple federally aligned centers (e.g., CVE) that materially shape the space-cyber ecosystem.
