Overview
Barriers to entry have never been lower, to obtain drone technology. Systems can be acquired without a license or formal training requirements, for around $1,000. In direct correlation, the number of reported Incidents involving commercial drones are growing. Drones have been spotted at major sporting events. Others have been seen at airports, nearly colliding with planes on final approach.
Challenge
The surveillance capability of these systems is unparalleled at the price point. Intel gathered remotely can be used to expose security vulnerabilities. For critical assets, that translates to simplified theft, smuggling and vandalism efforts. In theatre, drones are already being utilized to carry out offensive actions. Information is readily available online, which can be utilized to modify commercial drones to deliver hazardous payloads. It is no longer a question of If, but a question of when, an act of terror will be facilitated in a highly populated area using an unmanned system.
Solutions
To address the potential security threats drones pose, DGS offers a world-class drone threat management (DTM) system. The system:
- Detects, classifies and locates drones at farther distances than typical counter-UAV systems available (2KM).
- Identifies UAS (Drone and Controller) in less than 2 seconds
- Multiple interdiction (defend options)
- Integrates with 3rd party systems, such as cameras
- Detects drone and other anomalous signals from 40 MHz to 6 GHz
Faster detection, at longer distances, translates into more time to react and respond.
