Among these networks, Starlink, pioneered by SpaceX, has garnered significant attention for its ambitious mission to provide high-speed internet access on a global scale. However, the proliferation of satellite infrastructure also brings to the forefront a myriad of cybersecurity challenges, as these networks become increasingly vital for critical communication and data exchange. This research endeavours to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the cybersecurity landscape surrounding Starlink, with a focus on identifying potential threats, assessing associated risks, and proposing mitigation strategies to bolster the resilience of the network. Through an exploration of existing literature, an examination of the system architecture of Starlink, and an analysis of the current cyber threat landscape facing satellite internet networks, this study aims to provide valuable insights into the cybersecurity challenges inherent in the operation of global satellite internet infrastructure. By prioritizing risks and proposing effective mitigation strategies, this research seeks to contribute to the ongoing efforts to safeguard the integrity and accessibility of satellite-based internet connectivity.
