Telespazio Belgium is a subsidiary of Telespazio and part of the Leonardo Group, operating in aerospace and defence since 1982. Based in Bastogne with additional presence in Germany and the Netherlands, the team numbers more than 150 employees focused on advanced satellite services and engineering for space agencies and satellite operators.
The company's technical footprint spans navigation, earth observation, satellite communications, and space operations - domains where integrity of systems is non-negotiable. Teams work across system design, hardware and software development, integration, and operational support. The threat model here isn't hypothetical: compromise in satellite ground systems or communications links means degraded mission capability for government and institutional clients with real operational mandates.
With over 40 years of uninterrupted collaboration in the sector, Telespazio Belgium maintains long-term relationships with space agencies and satellite operators across Europe. Cybersecurity roles in this context are embedded in engineering and operations workflows - securing satellite communication infrastructure, hardening ground segment systems, and supporting the integrity of navigation and earth observation data pipelines that downstream users depend on.
