Satellite modem Starlink Internet Satellite Dish Kit v2

Starlink Security

Communication between the terminals and Starlink satellites is carried out using reliable encryption protocols that exclude data interception using MITM attacks or listening to the radio.

However, it should be borne in mind that Starlink is an American product, therefore it is subject to US law, and accordingly it should include CALEA tools that allow law enforcement and intelligence agencies to access terminals and intercept or analyze traffic as part of anti-terrorist activities.

As with any type of communication, when transferring critical data or organizing communication with a critical or business infrastructure, it is recommended to use secure protocols (IPsec, IKEv2, OpenVPN, etc.) with strong encryption (for example, AES).

Benefits of Starlink

Starlink is the ideal solution for organizing Internet access in hard-to-reach regions and war zones with damaged infrastructure, as well as for countries with a high cost of Internet access. In other cases, Starlink is still significantly behind its competitors, both in terms of the level of the subscription fee and the possibility of providing a consistently high speed. Today, fiber-optic cable data transmission technologies are leading in the world, primarily GPON technology.
