Security Attacking satellite communication. As the war in Ukraine shows, large constellations of satellites in low orbit (LEO) are resistant to jamming. Several reasons. 1) Signal 10-100x stronger than GEO; so it is harder to jam 2) Lots of satellites in range of users; jamming everything is difficult. The attacker would have to target even 49 satellites, in multiple bands. This leaves options for attacks on protocols (LTE/5G), which may be possible.
