SAGREDO ENGINEERING

ABSTRACT

The increasing use of drones has led to the need to develop advanced anti-drone systems to protect critical infrastructures, public spaces, and restricted areas from potential security threats. This talk explores emerging and established technologies in the field of anti-drone systems, highlighting the main approaches used, including radar detection, radio frequency analysis, the use of electro-optical sensors, and other factors. It will address the technical challenges related to distinguishing between legitimate and hostile drones, the effectiveness of jamming systems, as well as the necessary evolution of regulations for managing these technologies. The talk will also analyze concrete use cases and examples and discuss future prospects, focusing on how artificial intelligence and machine learning can enhance detection and response capabilities. It will conclude with a discussion on implications of these technologies in the context of security and privacy.

SPEAKER BIOGRAPHY

Giuseppe Albino is the General Manager of SAGREDO ENGINEERING. He received the degree in Electronic Engineering by the University of Naples Federico II, Italy in 2001. From 1996 to 2000 he was in the Italian Navy dealing with the Naval-Electronic domain. His professional interests include quality management and regulation, innovation technology, and security management.
SAGREDO ENGINEERING is a leading company in the development of cutting-edge technologies for the creation of integrated Security Systems, specializing in anti-drone systems designed to protect critical infrastructures, airspaces, and sensitive locations. With over 15 years of experience in designing, developing, and integrating complex systems for the defense and protection of critical sites, SAGREDO ENGINEERING offers a comprehensive range of solutions, including radar detection, RF interference, and countermeasures for unauthorized drone activity. Thanks to a team of experts in robotics, artificial intelligence, and telecommunications, the company constantly innovates to provide state-of-the-art solutions that meet the strictest security requirements. SAGREDO ENGINEERING recently deployed its advanced anti-drone system at a large critical government site, following an increase in unauthorized drone incursions near flight paths. The system integrates radar, RF detection, and real-time video analysis (optical and thermal) to identify and neutralize potential threats through GPS Spoofing Jammers within a 10-kilometer radius. Upon detecting an unauthorized drone, the system initiates an automated response, emitting RF jamming signals to disable the drone’s control mechanisms, ensuring the safety of operations and airport activities without the need for physical intervention. The project has significantly reduced security risks, allowing uninterrupted operations while complying with aviation safety regulations.
