DroneSec

The DroneSec UAS adversary threat intelligence platform was highlighted in UNSW's recent "Countering Uncrewed Systems" foundations course by Travis Hunt. A database that documents UxS Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) from around the globe, its importance as a layer in the overall C-UxS ecosystem was considered amongst other industry heavyweights. The course Identified the types of sub-systems which can defeat uncrewed systems, along with the threats posed by land, air and maritime uncrewed systems. A system-of-systems engineering approach was presented with a gamified scenario of various airborne threats. Organizations are utilising the DroneSec Threat Database to collect intelligence for Left-of-Launch activities and analyze significant amounts of OSINT data on UxS threats, such as the scenarios highlighted in the course. #cuas #counterdrone #osint #intelligence #unsw #dronesec

The DROSINT course is now available to all FVEY and NATO-allied countries with a recent 2024 content update. Participants from government, military and law enforcement can now access this unique training on using OSINT to identify UAS operators for investigative purposes. Contact DroneSec today to delve into the following topics: - Identify information such as serials and pilot registration numbers - Determine a drone's make, model and country of origin from shape - Discover the user behind a drone, footage and other information - Geolocate drone images or footage that may have been posted online For participants from NATO countries on the waitlist, expect welcome emails within the next few days. #osint #drosint #drones #uas #investigations #intelligence

Incidents near stadiums and critical infrastructure included dropping of water bottles from FPV UAS for practice and to gauge security response. Find out about this and more in Mike Monnik's talk at the Venue Safety & Security Exchange (VSX) conference in Sydney, Australia last week. #drone #uas #cuas #counterdrone #intelligence #osint

Business Insider covers UAS dogfighting tactics with DroneSec analysis. Although dogfighting has been observed since 2021, extraordinary innovative techniques have been seen over the last few years. One of the biggest paradigm shifts in the war in Ukraine is the high-value target (HVT) focus placed on uncrewed aerial assets. A weaponized UAS which used to target $MM armoured tanks now makes an obvious choice to target a Baba Yaga (UA) or Orlan (RU) instead. #russia #ukraine #cuas #counterdrone #uas #uav #dogfighting

One-way attack FPVs being prepared for strikes against Junta forces in Myanmar. Over the last few months, UAS TTPs have seen considerable change in Myanmar. For years large, heavy-lift and agricultural drones have dominated use, dropping large payloads against critical infrastructure, troops and convoys. Due to the lack of funding and parts, UAS sorties have traditionally focused on survivability and the return of UAS for re-use. A shift has occurred however, with several weaponized FPV strikes being documented against buildings, vehicles and troops in recent weeks. #myanmar #cuas #threatintel #fpv #uas

Release of 2nd edition of weaponized UAS playbook by IS An Islamic State affiliated media channel has released the 2nd edition of a guide on using weaponized UAS for terrorist purposes. After the initial release of the 'Modern Warfare' guide looking at the advantages and disadvantages of each UAS make and model, this release focuses on a tear-down and component analysis of a UAS.

Use of S-5 rockets fired from fixed-wing UAS by Hezbollah A video published by Hezbollah showed an alleged Ababil-2 fixed-wing UAS firing S-5 rockets at an Israeli military site. This analysis includes observations of the UAS involved, munitions and key insights into how Hezbollah UAS TTPs have evolved over time. Request the full report: https://lnkd.in/gh9u6srZ

Use of FPV UAS by Hezbollah A recent video published by Hezbollah showed an an alleged FPV one-way attack UAS being momentarily jammed and striking an Israeli Drone Dome C-UAS. This analysis includes observations of potential fabrication, the UAS involved, the systems targeted by ATGM and key insights into how UAS may have bypassed mitigation effectors based on preliminary actions.
