America unveils the safest UAV model in the world

China Defense Science and Technology Site reported that the Pentagon Research Agency revealed a new UAV model equipped with security software.

The security software can prevent network attacks from penetrating into the control and navigation system of the UAV, so the UAV is the safest UAV in the world.

In the process of military drone or other military aircraft are conducting real-time information sharing, vulnerabilities or security issues will appear. This phenomenon may be due to network interactions, software vulnerabilities, etc., which may cause undue risks. Many electronic devices in the process of network connection will appear information holes, the enemy can take advantage of that vulnerability to carry out their intentions.

Thus, the United States has deployed this secure UAV project called the 'Advanced Military Security System' (HACMS) . The project was developed by the San Diego branch of the University of California and the University of Washington, and later by the United States Agency for Advanced Defense Studies (DARPA).

Project HACMS through software to prevent cyber attacks. The software makes it impossible for hackers to take control of the UAV, in other words, the UAV will be able to withstand large-scale network attacks.

DARPA has simulated Cyber Attack to assume that this UAV attack was unsuccessful. The result was that the UAV was equipped with four propellers, the safest UAV in the world. "We have found that many UAVs are vulnerable to software hackers, as well as remote control and control, so we will use the software," Escher said. High security to equip this UAV. '

The HACMS project software can be applied to larger projects. DARPA plans to use this software to equip Boeing unmanned helicopters.
