“We’re in an exciting era where space is enabling unprecedented innovation. By working with Deloitte, we’re bringing next generation capabilities to orbit by deploying small satellites that can be built in months, not years,” said Theresa Condor, CEO at Spire. “This approach helps our customers to move quickly, experiment, and stay agile as their needs change. By combining Spire’s trusted satellite infrastructure with Deloitte’s vision and leadership in the field, this program moves us closer to building more resilient and adaptable space-based assets for commercial and defense markets.”
Earlier this year, Deloitte launched its first satellite, Deloitte-1, on the SpaceX Transporter-13 mission as part of its Silent Shield program. Spire has collaborated with Deloitte to test and validate Deloitte’s cyber intrusion detection system payload for satellites in orbit, strengthening the resilience and security of space systems against cyber threats. Silent Shield utilizes Spire’s advanced satellite technology, helping Deloitte study real-time satellite signaling patterns and evaluate the detection and mitigation of cyber anomalies.
“Spire’s integrated technology gives us a powerful and relevant platform to engineer, test, validate, and refine our on-orbit cyber solutions with the goal of advancing the cyber resiliency of on-orbit assets with edge cyber detection and response,” said Brett Loubert, leader of Deloitte’s U.S. Space practice. “As space becomes even more critical to our technology and security, our focus on cyber resilience and reliable access to space data enables our clients to operate even more confidently and adapt to more sophisticated threats.”
Spire’s Space Services model and robust space infrastructure offers end-to-end satellite manufacturing, launch management, and operational capabilities. With over 34 ground stations and a partner ground station network, Spire offers secure, encrypted data transmission to Deloitte’s cloud environment.
