Counter Unmanned Aerial System Security Education

Unmanned aircraft system (UAS) technologies have gained immense popularity in the commercial sector and have enabled capabilities that were not available just a short time ago. Once limited to the domain of highly skilled hobbyists or precision military instruments, consumer UAS are now widespread due to increased computational power, manufacturing techniques, and numerous commercial applications. The rise of consumer UAS and the low barrier to entry necessary to utilize these systems provides an increased potential for using a UAS as a delivery platform for malicious intent. This creates a new security concern which must be addressed. The contribution presented in this work is the realization of counter UAS security technology concepts viewed through the traditional security framework and the associated challenges to such a framework.
