SIG SAUER - Never Settle

Commercial Drones No Longer a New and Emerging Threat

Liteye Systems, Inc and Red Six Solutions. Responds to Saudi Drone Attack

Centennial Colorado — The deliberate and calculated drone attack on Saudi Aramco oil facilities is of strategic and global significance.  Access to inexpensive unmanned aircraft has changed the landscape for malicious activities, heightening the threat to critical infrastructures; airports, energy, agriculture, commercial, government and public venues. 

“Incidents and effectiveness of drone related attacks are steadily increasing.  As this trend continues, the next incident will happen, and it could be larger and more destructive,” said Kenneth Geyer, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, Liteye Systems, Inc. “Protecting human life and critical assets from nefarious drone use is vital and requires layers of defensive capabilities.  We’ve partnered with expert organizations in industry to bring these solutions to fruition.  Only by integrating multiple levels of security can we hope to defend against attacks such as what happened on Saturday.”   

Liteye Systems, Inc. has protected personnel and critical infrastructure against enemy or hazardous use of small drones when our systems first deployed with US forces in Iraq. Those first systems, and many more since, are still in operation today protecting U.S. DoD sites, but little is being done to protect equally important sites like critical transportation, energy and chemical infrastructure.  Layered CUAS systems can prevent another incident.    

 “US security officials are aware of the seriousness of the situation faced by all critical facilities. There is an urgent need for the government to approve policies and release comprehensive solutions to provide direly needed protection to these high priority assets” said Scott Crino, CEO of Red Six Solutions.
