Army, Navy, and Air Force have all acknowledaed the potential threat by UAS ' to 000 equ iti es but no single UNCLASSIFIED repository exists to share th is Information across all stakeholders. PURPOSE : Our collective purpose Is to eventually establish an UNCLASSIFIED database or "Commun ity of Interest" of related silnature data to be accessible by stakeholders such as DIA, the Navy, Defense Industry partners, and perhaps even State, Local & Tribal authorit i es to catalog and Identify specific UAS threats to national security and/or DoD equities. By creating a virtual library to catalog and analyze eac h event, our hope will be to better understand the capabilities, and ult imately vulnerabilit ies of these systems.
