  CubeSat-based nanosatellites are composed of COTS components and rely on its
structure and standardized interfaces. A challenge in the nanosatellites
context is to adapt the V\&V (Verification and Validation) process to answer to
the increase importance of the embedded software, to reduce the artefacts to be
delivered aiming at cutting cost and time and still complying with
international standards. This work presents an analysis of the strategy adopted
in a real nanosatellite for the development of the OBDH software embedded in
NanosatC-BR2 mission. The goal is to discuss the impact that the
standardization of the structure and interfaces of the CubeSat impose on the
V\&V process of the SiS and to highlight the challenges of ``New Space Age``
for the use of existing V\&V techniques and methods.
