Traditionally, GPS jamming attacks have been confined to the ground; however, new data shows that these attacks could be moving to target signals before they even reach the ground.

In this week’s episode, host Maria Varmazis sits down with Dave Bittner and Brandon Karpf to discuss recent research that suggests the attack landscape for GPS attacks is expanding. If this research is accurate, these attacks represent a significant evolution for how defenders think about this critical technology.

• Something is jamming GPS over Europe. Here's what we found.

• Chasing Lightning: Detecting, Characterizing, and Identifying a Powerful Space-Based GNSS Interference Source.

• EKS 5.

GPS constellations have become foundational in modern society supporting everything from navigation to financial services, making the impacts of GPS disruptions all the more concerning.

As reliance on these systems have grown, so too have efforts by threat actors to disrupt them through techniques such as jamming and spoofing. As these attacks have become more effective, they are becoming increasingly common, especially in conflict zones where disruption and confusion can prove exceedingly valuable.

Since its original creation in the 1970s, GPS has evolved from a technology primarily used by the military to a foundation for modern society. 

After the removal of selective availability for civilians in 2000, GPS’s value has significantly expanded. In the past two decades, nearly every critical infrastructure sector–telecommunications, transportation, energy, agriculture, emergency services, and financial services–relies on GPS constellations to ensure that timing and location accuracy are precise. Though many do not see its utility in day-to-day efforts, GPS has become entrenched in modern networks and services. Key sources:

• Removal of selective availability.

• Satellite Navigation - GPS - How It Works.

• What can GPS do?
