Velocity: Cyberspace Warfare for Space Industry Engagement Day
Join SpaceWERX, U.S. Space Force's 6th Sustainment Squadron, and other Cyberspace Warfare professionals on July 14, 2026, for a collaborative forum focused on accelerating next-generation Defensive Cyberspace Warfare (DCW) capabilities for U.S. space systems. This event brings together government, industry, and innovation leaders to address critical cybersecurity challenges and advance resilient, scalable DCW solutions.
"Effective space operations continuously require secure and resilient ground, link, and space segments. To win tonight’s fight, the 6th Sustainment Squadron and our SpaceWERX partners have fully embraced that acquisition is a warfighting function. We must iterate with urgency alongside our industry partners. Velocity provides the critical connection between innovative ideas and operational outcomes, to outpace our adversaries and enable cyberspace warfare operators to dominate the domain."
– Lt Col Jason Altenhofen, Commander, 6th Sustainment Squadron
