Abstract (2. Language): 
This paper examines the use of micro and pico satellites in the maritime interdiction and maritime security operations. It is providing the operational background of the above mentioned areas of operations and it is trying to interconnect the micro and pico satellite technology to the use of it by field officers on the move. After a brief literature survey in the area – where there are not currently many candidates – there is an analysis for operational micro and pico satellite characteristics as well as vulnerabilities of those for Low Earth Orbits. Additionally real scenario implementation has been run and simulated results provide facts for the conduction of those space operations in the maritime security arena. Finally, there is an initial cost benefit analysis and an analysis of how these very small satellite structures can be better utilized in the future with the use of micro thrusters. An in depth analysis of the current technology in the area has been performed.
