Satellite Cybersecurity Act of 2025
The Satellite Cybersecurity Act of 2025 requires the Comptroller General to study federal efforts supporting cybersecurity for commercial satellite systems and report findings to Congress within two years. It mandates the Department of Commerce to establish a public online clearinghouse containing voluntary cybersecurity resources, including tailored guidance for small businesses. The clearinghouse will consolidate recommendations covering risks like hacking, jamming, supply chain vulnerabilities, and foreign ownership threats to satellite systems. This bill directly affects commercial satellite operators (non-Federal entities with licenses), federal agencies using satellite services, and small businesses developing satellite technology.
