@ 2023/06/27August DEFCON hacker convention project
White-hat hackers at the DEFCON hacker convention will compete to try and breach the computer systems on a satellite in orbit.
Hack-A-Sat 4, taking place live at DEFCON on August 10 in Las Vegas, will be the first-ever hacking contest staged on a vehicle in orbit.
In previous years, the contests used genuine working satellite hardware but running safely on the ground. Hack-A-Sat 4 is an attack/defend contest in which teams compete to hack each other's systems while defending their own.
