    high

    T2004.001 'Telecommand Protocol Interception' is the direct cross-framework counterpart of EXF-0003.01 Uplink Exfiltration — both describe receiving/tapping the uplink path to collect telecommand frames and authentication metadata.

  • REC-0003.02Commanding DetailsST0001
    addresses
    moderate

    T2004.001 'Telecommand Protocol Interception' is the passive method to acquire commanding details, addressing the eavesdropping subset of REC-0003.02.

    addresses
    high

    T2004.001 'Telecommand Protocol Interception' is the direct counterpart of REC-0005.01 Uplink Intercept Eavesdropping — uplink is the TC channel.
