Cybersecurity Drone Policy Explained

With cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities on the rise, it’s an important time to review relevant cybersecurity guidelines and frameworks that will impact drone design and testing, as well as any influence on purchasing decisions. This session will provide an overview of threats and geopolitical considerations that are shaping US domestic policy, highlighting the Blue and Green UAS programs that were implemented to address these cyber risks. These programs explore topics that are top of mind for government UAS program managers and policymakers alike, such as country of origin considerations, supply chain requirements, and opening new, secure supply chains outside of countries of concern. Finally, the session will further explain the Green UAS program, which was initiated to expand the number of commercial uncrewed aircraft systems that meet the highest levels of cybersecurity and supply chain requirements.
