As threats from misused drones increase, anti-drone technologies are being developed. These can either destroy devices mid-air or intervene with their control systems. Some use nets to trap rogue devices, while others jam controlling frequencies. Israeli firm D-Fend Solutions offers a system that can hack and control adversarial drones. Anti-drone tech is predicted to become commonplace in protecting critical infrastructures, but legal adaptations are needed.
