There is no SOC on orbit.
Space is no longer a frontier — it is critical infrastructure. Navigation, communications, earth observation, national security. It is contested, and it is almost entirely undefended.
The distance between threat and available defense is wider here than anywhere else in security, for a structural reason: satellite buses, ground segments, and the links between them operate within constraints conventional tooling simply cannot meet. There is no security operations center in orbit, no analyst watching the link; for most of this infrastructure, no record of activity is captured at all.
North Star Labs was built for exactly these conditions.
We deliver complete network ground truth where nothing else can operate — turning the least-instrumented domain in cybersecurity into one where defenders finally have evidence. Deployed today in partnership with the Defense Innovation Unit.
Mission Assurance
Satellites and ground segments operating with no record of what actually happened on their networks. North Star Labs provides that record — for the first time.
Resilient Architectures
Orbital systems, ground control networks, and the links between them operate under constraints no terrestrial tool was designed to meet. We were.
Defense of Systems We Depend On
The systems a modern military and economy depend on — GPS, communications, earth observation — are increasingly contested. Evidence is the only adequate defense.
Space security is national security.
North Star Labs maps directly to national space-security priorities: mission assurance for systems that cannot fail, resilient ground and orbital architectures that function under adversarial pressure, and the defense of systems a modern military and economy depend on.
What we're seeing on the wire.

The least-defended domain in security now has a record.
We are engaging with Space Force program offices, defense space programs, and commercial operators. The approach is the same in every domain: start where the evidence is missing, build the record from the ground up.
