| dc.description | Drones, or small unmanned aerial systems, have introduced significant security challenges to critical infrastructure, particularly nuclear facilities. While these systems can serve a variety of purposes, they can also pose potential threats. This is due to their ability to carry malicious payloads, conduct surveillance, or cause physical damage. To enhance nuclear security protocols, it is necessary to integrate risk assessment strategies into a comprehensive approach that effectively mitigates these threats. This response examines how risk assessment strategies can be integrated with existing security frameworks to address evolving threats posed by small, unmanned aircraft systems. To neutralize potential threats, it is necessary to identify vulnerabilities, implement advanced detection systems, and establish response protocols. For security measures to be adapted to UAS technology capability, collaboration among stakeholders, including government agencies, industry experts, and technology developers, is essential. This paper examines the threats posed by UAS to nuclear security facilities, as well as protective measures taken to mitigate these risks. | en |
