Traditional physical security programs have been struggling to adapt to the growing threat posed by Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), more commonly known as drones. The rapid evolution of the technology and the ways it is being used has outpaced our legislation and made it extremely challenging to counter.

No industry has been spared. Financial institutions, military bases, critical infrastructure, mass-gathering venues, and even disaster recovery efforts have all been impacted to various degrees in the last decade, with no real recourse to address the threat.

Whether you need Counter-UAS training for your staff or assistance identifying drone-related gaps in your facility’s security program, the professionals at Human Capital Evolution can help.

Counter-Drone Security Readiness Course

Our Counter-Drone Security Readiness Course provides participants with a functional framework and the tools to evaluate and address drone-focused security concerns for a variety of facilities. Whether you are proprietary staff, hired security staff, a law enforcement agency, or a consultant assisting clients with the security of their location, this course is the foundation you need to better understand the challenges and develop appropriate and legal solutions. No matter your level of experience in security and the Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) ecosystem, this course will enhance your understanding and enable you to conduct thorough and effective assessments.    

Drone-Focused Security Assessments

Developing an effective physical security program requires a thorough assessment of your facility. Protecting against Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) is no different, but it requires a framework designed specifically for drones, the environment they operate in, and the threats they pose. Our professionals conduct drone-focused security assessments using a comprehensive process designed to identify and prioritize threats, your facility’s vulnerabilities, and offer recommendations to enhance readiness and resilience for potential UAS incidents. The results of our assessments will provide the foundation upon which to build your drone-focused security program.
