Read about the growing and mysterious drone threat, drone mitigation techniques, and
C-UAS technology capabilities — in our January newsletter
Selected news, content,
incidents, and information about C-UAS, and the counter-drone world, from a D-Fend
perspective, based on our vision of enabling a flourishing and secure drone-powered
society by safely defending against rogue drone threats.
Lincoln Bloomfield Jr., former Assistant
Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs, addresses the growing drone
threat and the importance of effective C-UAS solutions.
Bloomfield highlights the advantages of
RF-cyber-based C-UAS technology, noting its ability to mitigate unauthorized drones
safely and precisely without risking collateral damage. D-Fend Solutions’ EnforceAir
system is mentioned as an example of this cutting-edge technology, pointing out its
successful deployments at high-profile events.
Experts Urge Action to Close Gaps in
Airspace Awareness and Empower Local Law Enforcement
With a swirl of media attention surrounding
mysterious drone sightings in the skies above NJ and other states, experts in drone
systems and C-UAS technology are calling for greater use of drone-detection systems
by civilian infrastructure owners.
Drone
experts advise calm over New Jersey sightings. Although politicians have called to
shoot them down, experts say the lights are likely legal drones, planes – or
stars.

Disrupted Environments Mode
With the release of
EnforceAir2 version 24.04.2 last year, a long list of features was rolled out,
including expanded detection and mitigation coverage, upgraded naval vessel
deployment capabilities, support for more drones, user interface enhancements, and
an AI-based mitigation engine.
Another feature that was
introduced was the new “Disrupted Environments Mode” within EnforceAir2. With this
new feature, EnforceAir2 provides operational support in zones with disrupted GNSS
environments through advanced logic that optimizes the system in such
scenarios.
