Abstract

This factsheet provides a quick overview of the content of the JRC publication 'Protection against Unmanned Aircraft Systems: Handbook on UAS risk assessment and principles for physical hardening of buildings and sites.'
Notably, it highlights:
→ Proposal of a structured approach for a robust risk assessment and risk-management framework specific to UAS-driven attacks
→ Multifunctionality and cost-benefit aspect of physical hardening measures, good reversibility of installation, harmonious integration in line with security-by-design principles, while maintaining a high deterrence potential
→ A systematic overview of the effectiveness, benefits and potential concerns of protective measures used against UAS-driven attack tactics
→ An overview of cost-efficient methodologies that go beyond physical hardening approaches, such as camouflaging, concealing, encasing and repositioning of assets as effective strategies against UAS-driven attacks
