D-Fend Solutions Enters Agreement with Naval Surface Warfare Center on Drone Tech

RA’ANANA, Israel and MCLEAN, Va. — Radio frequency cyber-based, non-kinetic, non-jamming, counter-drone takeover technology D-Fend Solutions today announced a new agreement with the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) under its Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) program.

This program “will focus on conducting extensive evaluation of D-Fend Solutions’ advanced counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS) technologies in various Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) test beds,” according to the company announcement.

The testing will be conducted at various selected governmental airfields, commercial airports and other facilities upon the mutual concurrence of both organizations, the announcement says.

These evaluations will collect data to “evaluate the capabilities of the EnforceAir C-UAS detection, tracking and identification system on a continuous basis in an airport environment, with the system
operational to gather data on drones when airspace regulations are violated,” according to the announcement. The test data will be analyzed and test reports generated.

Why D-Fend Teamed with Naval Surface Warfare Center

“Partnering with the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division under the CRADA
program provides a pivotal opportunity for us to continue to advance our counter-drone
technology in complex and challenging military and civil aviation environments,” says Zohar
Halachmi, chairman and CEO of D-Fend Solutions, in the announcement.

“The expertise and rigorous standards of the NSWC PCD make them an exceptional partner, as we move to fulfil evolving airport security demands,” he says. “Together, we will accelerate the evaluation and demonstration of our leading RF-Cyber C-UAS technology as we carry out the mission of protecting public safety and maintaining the continuity of essential operations.”

D-Fend Solutions’ participation in the program is “further recognition of the company’s leading presence in programs which demonstrate EnforceAir’s airport C-UAS technology capabilities,” according to the company announcement.

In 2023, D-Fend participated in and completed the FAA’s Airport UAS Detection and Mitigation Section 383 Research Program at Atlantic City International Airport (KACY) and Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR).

Welcome to Gary Pearce Home Services' authoritative guide on Future of Dental and Medical Practices CCTV in 2026 - UK trends and technology . 1. The Regulatory Landscape for Clinical CCTV in 2026 As we move through 2026, medical and dental practices across the UK face unprecedented scrutiny regarding patient privacy and physical security. Clinical environments require a delicate balance: maintaining absolute patient confidentiality while ensuring robust protection against theft, vandalism, and false liability claims. The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has updated its strict codes of practice to reflect advances in AI-driven edge surveillance. For dental and medical practices to remain compliant, any newly deployed CCTV system must strictly adhere to the ICO CCTV Code , UK GDPR , and the industry-recognised BS EN 62676 standard for video surveillance systems. To achieve SSAIB Grade 2 or Grade 3 certification, practice owners must ensure that security data i...

The 8K Resolution Era: Why Forensic CCTV is Now the Residential Standard

# The 8K Resolution Era: Why Forensic CCTV is Now the Residential Standard For years, 4K (8-Megapixel) resolution was considered the "ceiling" for residential security. But as we move into 2026, the demand for **Forensic Clarity** has pushed 8K (32-Megapixel) sensors into the mainstream. At **CCTV Systems**, we are seeing a massive shift towards 8K installations for homeowners who require more than just "vague shapes"

Why Weapons Detection Systems Fail Without Proper Planning

The weapons detection market has exploded over the past three years, driven by heightened security concerns across every vertical market. Healthcare facilities, educational institutions, corporate campuses, and entertainment venues are all investing in advanced weapons screening technology. For security integrators, this represents significant opportunity – and significant risk. Unlike traditional security systems that can be “set and forget,” weapons detection implementations succeed or fail based on factors that extend far beyond technical installation. The difference between a profitable, referral-generating project and a costly support nightmare often comes down to understanding challenges that don’t appear in any technical manual. The False Promise of “Plug and Play” Vendors market their systems as simple to deploy and operate. The reality is more complex. Advanced detection technology may be sophisticated, but successful implementation requires integrators to think beyond netw...
