The field of cybersecurity called OSINT (short for open source intelligence) is often employed within cybersecurity to identify and track down bad actors and possible vulnerabilities. Satellites help collect a plethora of space-based or geospatial data using sensors and cameras. Examples of data collected by satellites include imagery of planet surfaces like Earth for mapping and environmental monitoring.
