Abstract
Disclosed embodiments provide systems and methods for implementing enhanced geo-restricted data management in satellite constellation datacenters. A disclosed system and methods implement a satellite constellation datacenter of multiple LEO satellites that enables real-time satellite communications using lasers and secure data storage in the satellite constellation datacenter to protect critical data from unauthorized access and supports secure data transfer between the LEO satellites using laser based data transfer. To enable secure storage of geo-location restricted data in a LEO satellite, the LEO satellite constellation datacenter defines a geo-location cone and requires that the geo-location restricted data be stored within the geo-location cone. LEO satellites within the defined geo-location cone store the geo-location restricted data and securely transfer the geo-location restricted data from one satellite to another satellite within the defined geo-location cone.
