Data Manipulation: Stored Data Manipulation

An attacker can alter or corrupt stored data within a system, such as mission control databases, payload data storage, or onboard systems. Manipulating stored data can lead to incorrect decision-making, confusion, or operational errors, especially if the data is used for mission-critical analysis or operations. Preventive measures include employing encryption, access control, and integrity-checking mechanisms to ensure the authenticity and reliability of the stored data.
