Abstract
The article raises the problem of protecting spacecraft and space infrastructure objects from threats of cybernetic influence. The analysis of the sources of cybernetic threats to space activities, their impact on the critical infrastructure and military security of states is carried out, international legal aspects of the protection of space information systems from cybernetic influence are considered. It is concluded that the cyber impact on space objects can seriously undermine the economic and military security of States, violate their sovereignty, and lead to military conflicts. To counter the growing cyber threat of space activities, joint efforts of States around the world and the adoption of an international convention on cybercrime and cybersecurity are necessary. This requires the intensification of Russia’s diplomatic activities to ensure the security of its space infrastructure and information sovereignty.
