THE EMERGENCE OF NEW THREATS TO INFORMATION SECURITY WHEN USING DRONES

Abstract

The article shows how an innovative vehicle – a drone – can become a threat to information security. The classification of modern unmanned aerial vehicles is presented. The characteristics and applications of drones are considered. Based on real-world situations and system forecasting, the threats asso-ciated with the illegal use of drones are described, including threats to information security and threats to informatization facilities. The comprehensive ap-proach of the research forces us to take a fresh look at security issues. Measures to protect against the criminal use of unmanned aerial vehicles are being de-fined. The presented set of schemes of possible negative events allows you to take protective measures in advance.
