Cybersecurity of unmanned military aerial vehicles: methods of protection against signal interception and remote control

Keywords: cybersecurity, unmanned military aerial vehicles, signal interception, remote control, cryptographic protection, authentication, software program security

Abstract

The article discusses current issues of cybersecurity for unmanned military aerial vehicles (UAVs), particularly the threats of signal interception and unauthorized remote control. It analyzes typical cyberattacks targeting military drones and provides examples of successful attacks on these systems. The main focus is on protection methods such as cryptographic protection of signals, multi-level authentication, software and sensor system protection, as well as physical protection of communications. The article also includes an analysis of real cases of implementing these methods and examines the challenges encountered during their implementation. Prospects for further research in this field are proposed
