How to Protect Your Data on Satellites

[ed]

Because satellite traffic isn’t reliably encrypted, experts recommend precautions:

Use VPNs to hide IP addresses and encrypt internet traffic.

Use end-to-end encrypted apps like Signal or Telegram for messaging and calls.

Satellite providers should offer encryption as a default feature, not optional.

Researchers stress: “Encryption should be used at every layer as defense-in-depth.”
