Integrated into Swisscom Broadcast’s DroneDefence Deployment, Ondas’ Subsidiary Sentrycs’ Cyber-Over-RF Technology Enabled Early Detection and Tiered Mitigation Capabilities During One of the World’s Most High-Profile International Events
Ondas Inc. has announced that its subsidiary, Sentrycs, deployed its Cyber-over-RF (“CoRF”) solution as part of Swisscom Broadcast’s DroneDefence system to protect the world’s most sensitive security environments during the World Economic Forum 2026 in Davos, Switzerland.
Swisscom Broadcast supported the Graubünden Cantonal Police in securing the event, implementing a tailored, multi-sensor, multi-technology counter-drone architecture adapted to the security requirements and terrain conditions in Davos. Within this framework, Sentrycs’ Cyber-over-RF technology contributed advanced detection, identification, and controlled mitigation capabilities. As part of Swisscom Broadcast’s tailored deployment in Davos, the system enabled continuous monitoring and early detection and classification of drone activity under demanding local conditions.
“Major international events such as the World Economic Forum highlight the growing requirement for persistent protection of low-altitude airspace over public gatherings, critical infrastructure, and high-value locations,” said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. “Sentrycs’ Cyber-over-RF technology is uniquely suited to serve as a foundational layer of counter-UAS infrastructure, providing early detection, identification, and electronic mitigation capabilities while operating within regulatory frameworks. As governments and security organizations begin investing in counter-drone infrastructure to protect cities, public events, and strategic facilities, solutions like Sentrycs’ CoRF platform will play an increasingly central role in securing the lower airspace.”
The World Economic Forum is one of the most visible international gatherings, hosting approximately 3,000 representatives from government, business, and academia, including numerous heads of state and senior officials. Given the scale and profile of the event, protecting the lower airspace was an essential component of the overall security framework.
As part of Swisscom Broadcast’s DroneDefence solution, Sentrycs’ technology supported a consistent operational picture while enabling tiered response options, including cyber takeover and mitigation measures implemented in accordance with regulatory requirements. Automation capabilities reduced operational burden and supported reliable system performance throughout the event.
“The multi-technology approach implemented in Davos provided the clear operational picture required for an event of this scale,” said Markus Lichtensteiger, Key Account Manager at Swisscom Broadcast. “Early detection and structured response capabilities were essential to maintaining airspace security under demanding conditions.”
“Precise situational awareness of the lower airspace and the ability to act within regulatory boundaries, are essential to protect major international events,” said Tal Cohen, CEO of Sentrycs. “We are proud that our technology was integrated into Swisscom Broadcast’s
DroneDefence deployment in Davos, contributing to a structured and reliable counter-drone capability during the World Economic Forum.”
The successful deployment at the World Economic Forum 2026 underscores the growing importance of regulation-compliant counter-drone technologies that can be adapted to complex, high-profile environments.
