The Explosive Drone threat: A physical security paradigm shift? ASIS Europe 2025 Conference Recording
1 CPE
Understand the growing threat of weaponized commercial drones. This session examines how explosive-laden unmanned aircraft impact physical security risk analysis and what security teams must consider when assessing blast effects and protective measures.
1 CPE
The wide availability of small to medium sized commercial unmanned drones, together with their ease of manipulation, makes them a considerable new threat to consider in any physical security risk analysis. The increased affordability, flight stability and payload capacity has made it possible to consider these drones as effective munition vectors.
Equipped with Improvised Explosive Devices (IED’s), these drones can be used as a low cost weapon to disrupt governemental, societal or commercial activity by creating panic, causing structural damage and lead to the loss of human life.
We will go into the details of the explosive drone threat: what are the effects to take into account and how does it influence the blast risk analysis approach.
