Sector
Ports, airports, and transportation
Cranes, runways, and cargo yards are high-consequence targets with wide open sky above the fence.
Veil Systems provides consult-to-service drone-defense integration for ports, airports, and related transportation facilities.

Threat scenario
Scenario — Terminal / airfield edge
An unauthorized UAS enters a terminal yard or airfield edge—surveillance, disruption, or collision risk. Illustrative scenario; outcome depends on the circumstances.
Why the fence falls short
Ground security was not built for this approach
Port and airport perimeters control ground access. Aviation rules and detection planning address the air.
Sourced context
Facts that keep the story grounded
- CISA: UAS can bypass fences, gates, and guards; detection selection should consider site airspace. CISA UAS Detection Guidance
- Interagency advisory: legality depends on system functionality and use, not marketing labels. Interagency Legal Advisory
