Security Challenges in Space Programs

Mixed Space + IT Estates

Ground segment, mission systems, and corporate IT blur together, making CMMC scope hard to define

Long-Lived, Hard-to-Patch Assets

Space and ground-segment systems run for years; proving continuous risk reduction is a challenge

Deep Supply Chains

Primes and subs must flow down CUI protection requirements and prove them at every tier

High-Stakes CUI

Program data and technical designs demand airtight, audit-ready control evidence

Built for the Space Defense Industrial Base

CMMC 2.0 Readiness

Full NIST SP 800-171 coverage, SPRS scoring, SSP, and PoAM tuned for space and ground-segment scope

Whole-Estate Visibility

Inventory and scan IT, ground segment, and connected devices together, with findings mapped to controls

Remediation Proof

Vulnerability ingestion (including Tenable), enrichment, and closure reporting to show risk actually went down

Mission Assurance

Protect CUI across space, ground, and corporate IT — as one boundary

Satellites, launch, mission operations, and the networks behind them rarely live in one place. Scan Ninja inventories the whole estate, maps findings to controls, and proves remediation so your program data stays protected end to end.

What You Get

  • CMMC Coverage: All 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls with SPRS scoring

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Most space and satellite suppliers in the defense industrial base handle Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and fall under CMMC 2.0. We track all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls, calculate your SPRS score, and package evidence for your C3PAO. See our CMMC page for the full program.
Yes. Ground stations, mission-planning networks, and corporate IT often share a CMMC scope. We help you define the boundary, inventory assets across it, and generate remediation proof for the whole estate.
Space programs frequently involve ITAR and export-controlled technical data, which is typically CUI for CMMC purposes. We help you evidence the controls that protect it. Scan Ninja handles compliance data — we do not ingest or store your export-controlled technical designs.
