How Secure Are Your Critical Aerospace & Defense Systems?

February 17, 2026 | 10:00 AM PST

1 Hour

Aerospace, defense, and other mission-critical technologies face rapidly evolving hardware threats. A hobbyist can add a single board computer to a consumer device. A nation-state can scale an exploit across critical infrastructure. The attack surface widens fast, and the security implications are real.

Adversaries are continuously developing techniques that can compromise mission-critical components, sometimes before they even reach deployment. From side-channel analysis to fault injection, attackers are finding new ways to extract sensitive data, disrupt operations, and manipulate critical systems.

Join us for a technical deep dive into how modern hardware attacks work in practice and what engineering teams can do to build more resilient systems.

In this session, we’ll cover:

Real attack examples on complex systems, like satellite terminals and commercial drones.

How side-channel analysis techniques reveal power, electromagnetic, and unintended RF leakage that expose cryptographic operations.

How fault injection induces glitches to bypass authentication and break security logic.

You’ll also see a demo of our Fault Injection Laser System with our Inspector software.
