Counter-unmanned aerial systems (C-UAS) company Sentrycs has provided an update on its ongoing operations within the public safety market. The company recently closed agreements with two new law enforcement organisations, including one in North America. These new agreements will deliver core protocol manipulation sensor solutions across a wide variety of scenarios, from fixed sites to vehicle-mounted operations.
The deals mark another significant milestone for the company, which has seen its business quadruple, year over year, along with continued adoption of its pioneering technology which is now deployed across sensitive facilities and strategic assets worldwide.
The company has seen a noticeable spike in C-UAS interest heading into 2025, especially as in recent weeks, concerns have grown over unexplained drone sightings throughout several east coast states in the US. These sightings have prompted calls from both officials and citizens for swift action to identify and mitigate these mysterious flights.
Unregulated or malicious drone activity poses significant risks to public safety and critical infrastructure, ranging from unauthorised surveillance and smuggling to potential terrorist threats where commercially available drones can quickly and inexpensively be weaponised.
Addressing these challenges requires sophisticated solutions capable of countering such threats effectively while ensuring no interference with other communication systems that rely on the same frequency bands as the drones themselves.
Sentrycs’ solution is one of the few available technologies that addresses these challenges head-on, offering reliable and field-proven capability designed to safeguard public safety with no collateral damage.
Leveraging proprietary technology, Sentrycs’ passively detects, identifies and tracks drones, significantly reducing the possibility of false detections, a constant challenge encountered with other technologies.
The platform also allows the operator to mitigate (or neutralise) the drone in seconds, directing it to a designated safe landing spot or returning the device to its original home location, avoiding the need for kinetic engagements that often cause collateral damage.
“Recent events here in the US, specifically those in New Jersey really highlight the need to monitor unregulated drone activity, as it poses significant risks to public safety and critical infrastructure,” saod Sentrycs Chief Revenue Officer Jason Moore. “Every single day our technology is supporting missions to monitor or mitigate illegal drone activity.”
“Our global footprint means we address a variety of threats from intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance to enable human trafficking and drug smuggling, to even improvised explosive devices being delivered by the drones themselves,” he added.
“Addressing these challenges demands sophisticated solutions that counter such threats immediately and effectively without interfering with critical communication systems or causing collateral damage.”
