The Cybersecurity Risks Threatening Drones: Innovative Solutions in the Digital Age

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), or drones, were initially developed for military purposes, primarily for surveillance and military operations. Over time, their use expanded into various civilian sectors, including delivery and monitoring. This rapid proliferation has sparked growing concerns about cybersecurity. This article explores the cybersecurity risks faced by drones in an increasingly interconnected digital landscape and proposes innovative solutions to mitigate these threats. The analysis is structured into two main parts: the first examines the latest technological trends and the cybersecurity challenges confronting UAVs, while the second focuses on technical solutions to address these risks, as well as the role of local and international regulations in ensuring the safe deployment of this technology.
