Overview
Examine the electronic and signal vulnerabilities that receivers experience from space weather to jamming and spoofing. Learn why these vulnerabilities are becoming an increasing threat to critical infrastructure and which methods are used for detecting, mitigating and locating threats.
Course Outline
- Critical Infrastructure

- Spoofing
- Meaconing vs Spoofing
- How to Spoof (simplistic, moderate and sophisticated spoofers)
- Effects Countermeasures (for different levels of sophistication)
- Resilience
- Protect, Toughen, Augment
