What We Did:
During our evaluation, we identified over 20 DoD documents, such as policies, memorandums, execution orders, manuals, and checklists, related to the use of C-UAS capabilities within the United States and its territories. Most of the DoD documents are secret and therefore specific details cannot be discussed in this advisory. However, some of the requirements within the DoD documents contradict one another and do not speak to certain aspects of C-UAS authorities and capabilities, which impact the consistency of C-UAS capabilities use across the DoD. Based on our review of the documents and field work, we found two concerns with the DoD’s implementation of section 130i, title 10, United States Code and its ability to use C-UAS capabilities in the United States and its territories.
