Corrections facilities
Contraband no longer needs a visitor. A small aircraft can clear the wall and drop into the yard.
Veil Systems designs, procures, installs, and services drone-defense solutions for correctional facilities. Contractors cannot exercise SLTT mitigation authority.
Illustrative scenario — not a Veil installation or a real incident. Concept schematic.
Threat scenario
Scenario — Yard drop
A small UAS clears the perimeter and delivers contraband into a yard or housing area. Illustrative scenario; outcome depends on the circumstances.
Why the fence falls short
Ground security was not built for this approach
CISA notes drop mechanisms on UAS can deliver contraband. Traditional perimeter security is a ground control.
Sourced context
Facts that keep the story grounded
- CISA: drop mechanisms can deliver contraband; UAS can bypass fences, gates, and guards. CISA
- Under the SLTT framework in 28 CFR 124.4, contractors may provide technical support, maintenance, and training but may not operate mitigation systems, make credible-threat determinations, or execute mitigation actions. 28 CFR 124.4
Where Veil comes in

Site, threats, authorities.
Design
Layered detection plan.
Procure
Best-fit existing systems.
Install
As designed, documented.
Service
Maintenance and training support.
Authority boundary: Veil does not jam, seize, or disable drones. Mitigation is for authorized operators only. See regulatory explainer.
