DroneSec
About the project:
DroneSec takes the crown in the 'Software - Captured data management and analysis' category with their threat intelligence platform for drones - 'Notify'. Notify pulls detection and incident data from hundreds of sources to give a single operating picture of malicious or rogue drones around the globe, which has not only been used to aid and train law enforcement but also aided the creation of AI/ML datasets for use within major Urban Air Mobility programs. DroneSec Notify was created with the vision of safe and secure drone operations within autonomous mobility, transport and delivery.
What Airwards Judges said:
A fabulous initiative working in the shadows to protect us all from the nefarious use of drones. This is a completely unique system that solves a pressing problem: how to fight future threats in drone technology at various strategic places. Fundamentally, this socially ethical product ensures people have the freedom from the occurrence or risk of injury, danger, or loss. It is incredibly innovative, not just in their desire to create a safer world but also due to the breadth of sources they mine to create a global overview of the illegal use of drones. An excellent example of how drone and associated technology can be used for good.
