I imagine all commands have to get signed for the rover to accept them, but even if their keys were compromised and some vulnerability was found in the software, wouldn't you also need a network of really big dishes (see DSN) to actually send the commands to the rover? |

Nah, you can subscribe to big-dishes-on-demand using AWS Ground Station.
Wait, they did exactly that: https://aws.amazon.com/ground-station/
While some innovate, once again AWS reaps the margins of the whole space conquest by discretely providing the infrastructure that everyone needs. Clever!
