Counter-UAS for Corrections

How MyDefence Strengthens 
Corrections

Drones: A Threat to Correctional Facility Security

Correctional facilities face mounting threats from LSS (Low, Slow, Small) drones, which are increasingly used for smuggling contraband, dropping items into secure areas, or even assisting in escape attempts. These small, agile devices can easily bypass traditional security measures, jeopardizing the safety of personnel, inmates, and facility operations.

COTS Drones: A Challenge to Facility Security and Control

COTS (Commercial-Off-The-Shelf) drones are highly accessible and effective, posing significant challenges to correctional facilities by facilitating breaches that compromise security and control. To combat these threats, facilities need advanced detection systems that can accurately identify and locate both the drone and its operator.

Safeguarding Vital Systems

MyDefence offers advanced counter-UAS solutions specifically designed for correctional facilities and prisons. Our lightweight, durable systems are built for quick deployment and feature modular, plug-and-play functionality, enabling fast and effective responses to evolving threats.

Benefits of C-UAS

Detection

Identifying the presence of drones by analyzing their communication signals.

Mitigation

Neutralizing threats by disrupting the communication link between the drone and its operator.

System Integration

Seamless integration with existing military systems, including full compatibility with the Tactical Assault Kit (TAK) for enhanced operational efficiency and coordination.

Situational Awareness

Providing real-time situational awareness capabilities, ensuring coordinated responses and informed decision-making across units.

3 Ways Drones threaten 
Corrections

Drones present growing challenges for correctional facilities, enabling contraband smuggling, security breaches, and potential operational disruption. Their ability to bypass physical barriers allows unauthorized delivery of items such as drugs, weapons, or tools, endangering the safety of inmates and staff alike. Additionally, drones can be used for unauthorized surveillance, compromising privacy and facility security. As these threats increase with the accessibility of drone technology, deploying effective counter-UAS solutions is critical to maintaining control, ensuring safety, and protecting the integrity of correctional operations.

Physical disturbance

Drones can disrupt operations by dropping contraband like weapons or tools.

Attack

Drones can deliver dangerous items, endangering staff and inmates.

Smuggling

Drones can transport contraband across borders or monitor enforcement activities to evade detection.
