Future of the Commercial Drone Industry

While various reports continue to highlight the billions of dollars that commercial drone technology will eventually be worth, we’ve also seen headlines that claim the drone bubble has burst, contributing to market softness that will not allow the technology to truly take flight. Given these disparate narratives, what’s the reality of the technology in the present, much less the future?


It’s always fun to speculate about how things might not come together for a technology or an entire market but the bottom line is that the entire drone market environment in 2019 is much bigger than it was a few short years ago, when those reports about the billions of dollars first came out. What’s more is that the fifth annual Commercial UAV Expo Americas, taking place October 28-30, at the Westgate Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, is set to be the biggest one yet. That growth is indicative of what the technology looks like today, but it’s also just a hint at what’s in store for the industry tomorrow.


More than 185 of the world’s top UAS vendors will be on hand at the event, along with 2,500+ attendees and 250+ global media partners from six continents to explore developments related to how the technology is making countless tasks faster cheaper and safer. Leading companies that are involved with drone technology will be joined by representatives from the FAA to take part in discussions about how drone solutions can scale across entire organizations and industries. They’ll also discuss future innovations and applications related to urban air mobility, unmanned traffic management, security, remote ID, AI, and much more.


While there’s a lot of focus on the opportunity once broad authorization for expanded drone operations has been approved by the FAA, the reality is that the technology already is making a real, bottom-line difference today. Seleta Reynolds (Los Angeles DoT), Suzanne Van Cooten (National Weather Service), Jarrett Larrow (FAA), Todd Graetz (BNSF Railway), and Sarah Kohlsmith (SunCor Energy) and many more end users will be at the Commercial UAV Expo to talk through where and how drones currently are creating value for their organizations.

DDoS Attack Mean for My Security?

You need to prepare and plan to manage a DDoS attack against your systems. You need to monitor, generate alerts, and quickly diagnose a DDoS attack in progress. The next step is shutting down the attack quickly without affecting your users. You can block the IP addresses using your Next-Gen Firewall, or close inbound traffic to the targeted system and failover to a backup. There are other response plans you can implement, make sure to have one. Some CDNs, like Cloudflare, also act as a reverse proxy which can further protect your WordPress site from DDoS attacks. An HTTP Flood attack, for example, is an application layer attack that targets a web server on the target and uses many fast HTTP requests to bring the server down. Think of it as pressing the refresh button in rapid-fire mode on your game controller. That kind of traffic from many thousands of computers at once will quickly drown the webserver. Who should consider using a CDN: Most websites can benefit from integrating a CDN

Profiling Hackers in the MITRE ATT&CK Navigator

Using the MITRE ATT&CK Navigator or similar tools, organizations can categorize attacks by specific threat groups and threat actors. It is even possible to profile the technologies and the procedures attackers use. In short, you will have a strong idea of the next move your opponents are going to make. Notice that each of the technologies is categorized into a version of the hacker lifecycle. The top of the page reads Initial access, Execution, Persistence, Privilege Escalation and so forth. These are the general steps that attackers take as they compromise a network. The MITRE ATT&CK Navigator then allows you to profile specific attack groups. Each group profiles an actual group of cyberattackers. Using this model, you can quickly identify how each group operates. Going back to my baseball analogy, imagine if you knew that a group of pitchers behaved a certain way. Now, you can profile that behavior and train your batters to best address how those pitchers are trying to defea

The Importance of Post-Attack Analysis

Comprehensive visibility into an organization’s network activity is essential not only to quickly combat DDoS threats, but also to enable compliance reporting and archive security event data that enables security audits and forensic analysis of past threats. Organizations can learn from past attacks to uncover hidden patterns of data and identify emerging vulnerabilities within the massive streams of security event data Without this level of visibility, it is impossible to determine how effectively an attack was mitigated and whether there were any false-positives which led to collateral damage that substantiates any service level agreement (SLA) claims. For over a decade, Corero has been providing state-of-the-art, highly-effective, automatic DDoS protection solutions for enterprise, hosting and service provider customers around the world. Our SmartWall®  DDoS mitigation solutions  protect on-premise, cloud, virtual and hybrid environments.   Moreover, cloud-based DDoS defenses a
