Drones and critical infrastructure: A growing threat to essential systems Attempted attack on a power grid in Tennessee One of the most alarming drone threat examples of 2024 occurred in Nashville, TN where federal authorities foiled a plot to attack an electric substation using a drone armed with explosives. Mystery drones over New Jersey The drones disrupted a medevac helicopter’s emergency landing and triggered flight restrictions around sensitive areas, including the Picatinny Arsenal Military Base. This is an ongoing problem, unknown drones being spotted nightly. Sports and entertainment: When the games stop because of drones NFL game halted by a drone swarm The year kicked off with an unexpected timeout during the Ravens vs. Chiefs game at M&T Bank Stadium. Five drones were spotted within a 3-mile radius, breaching FAA no-fly zones and forcing the game to stop. Paris Olympics: Spy games in the sky During the 2024 Olympics, the Canadian women’s soccer team was caught using a drone to spy on U.S. and New Zealand teams’ training sessions. Green Day concert chaos In September, thousands of fans at Comerica Park in Detroit were left stunned when an unauthorized drone buzzed the stage during a Green Day concert. The band was forced to flee mid-performance, and the event was paused for ten tense minutes until authorities detained the operator. Intelligence gathering: Espionage has taken to the skies Spying on submarines Early in the year, a Chinese national used a drone to capture images of nuclear submarines being assembled in the U.S., exposing the alarming reality of aerial espionage. Drone scouting before an assassination attempt In Pennsylvania, a drone was reportedly used to scout the Butler Farm Showgrounds before a rally for former President Donald Trump. 👉 See the SkySafe link below to view these full stories. TLDR - Drone incidents are becoming a growing problem for our national security. We have the resources and technologies to prevent bad actors but our law enforcement are not as equipped with these resources as you may think. #UAS #drone #security #defense

🚁 A fence and a camera isn’t enough anymore. Today critical infrastructure security teams are dealing with an invisible threat: drones. Drones can easily slip over fences undetected, creating new vulnerabilities for espionage, smuggling, and sabotage. As drone technology becomes more accessible, safeguarding essential sites requires proactive, integrated Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) to stop unauthorized aerial intrusions before they pose a serious risk.

The drone era is well under way, and with it comes a significant need for responsive counter-systems that can quickly detect and eliminate autonomous and remote-piloted threats. CACI offers a layered approach to drone defense, enabling better protection against UxS and better real-time decision-making. https://lnkd.in/evBev7GK hashtag

🚨Don't Ignore Early Warning Signs🚨 While drones casually flying overhead might appear harmless, they pose significant risks that cannot be overlooked. 🔍 Consider This: The locations you notice drones may not be as arbitrary as they seem. These machines are often deployed for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) — critical elements in the planning of terrorism and smuggling operations. 🛡️ The Role of Drones in ISR: Compact, agile, and discreet, drones are becoming the tool of choice for both intelligence gathering and operational planning. Their capacity to operate undetected makes them a prime asset for hostile entities. ⚠️ Preventive Measures Are Essential: We cannot afford the luxury of hindsight in matters of national and global security. It's crucial to address these threats proactively to prevent future crises. 🔗 Explore our insights on countering non-state drone threats and enhancing security measures: The Rise of the Non-State Drone Threats 📢 Act Now, Not Later: The time to bolster our defenses against drone-related security threats is now. Delaying action only heightens the risks. Join the conversation and share your thoughts on how we can collectively strengthen our security frameworks against drone threats. #CUAS #CounterDrone #DroneSecurity #NationalSecurity #PublicSafety

" To this end, the fact sheet lays out five specific “strategic ways” that are central to how the Pentagon will seek to address drone threats through its new strategy, which are as follows: “Deepen our Understanding and Awareness of Unmanned Systems Trends and Threats. The Department will ‘sense and make sense’ of threats that unmanned systems pose, including by gaining a greater understanding of unmanned systems threats and by improving the ability of our operational forces to detect, track, and characterize these threats.” “Disrupt & Degrade Unmanned Systems Threat Networks. The Department will address the threat networks that drive the development and proliferation of unmanned systems whenever possible, including by launching and executing deliberate campaigns to counter these networks, in partnership with other U.S. departments and agencies.” “Defend Against Unmanned Systems Threats to U.S. Interests. The Department will adapt fully to defending against unmanned systems as a core element of warfighting, including by: improving our active and passive defenses; clarifying, streamlining, and delegating authorities, as needed; and institutionalizing approaches across doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership, personnel, facilities, and policy.” “Deliver Solutions with Greater Speed, Adaptability, and Scale. The Department will deliver robust counter-unmanned systems at speed and scale, including by leveraging rapid acquisition approaches; prioritizing integrated, open, modular solutions; employing systems engineering and predictive analytics; reducing the cost imbalance between unmanned systems and countermeasures; expanded budget agility; increasing experimentation; creating conditions for rapid and realistic testing; and maximizing exportability, co-development, and co-production of capabilities with our closest allies and partners.” “Develop & Design the Future Joint Force for Unmanned Systems-Driven Ways of War. The Department will make countering unmanned systems a key element of our thinking about future force development and design, including by pursuing changes to our force structure, employing our forces differently, and seeking technologies that could enable us to offset adversary advantages.” https://lnkd.in/ghRd5gER
