Strengthening Prison Perimeter Security

Recent data from the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) and high-profile operations like Georgia’s Operation Skyhawk reveal the alarming increase in drone incidents at prisons, with many drones flying undetected by outdated security measures. To combat this, the integration of advanced radar technology with existing security systems is critical. Radar’s ability to detect all types of drones, including "dark drones" that evade radio frequency (RF) detection, is essential for maintaining comprehensive situational awareness in correctional facilities.

Highlights:

• Drones are increasingly used to smuggle contraband into prisons, bypassing traditional security measures.
• Effective drone detection systems require a combination of radar, cameras, and command-and-control platforms.
• Integrators must future-proof security measures to keep pace with evolving drone technology.
