As global events and drone operations expand, protecting the airspace around large gatherings and critical infrastructure has become essential. This panel explores how C‑UAS strategies and FAA Section 2209 shape security and operations in high‑visibility, high‑risk environments.

Experts from public safety, aviation, and federal agencies will discuss drone threat assessment, airspace coordination, and operating within restricted areas—including 2209‑designated sites. The session will also examine how these restrictions intersect with event TFRs, requiring layered planning and interagency collaboration.

Attendees will gain practical insights into integrating C‑UAS technologies, ensuring compliance, and building scalable programs that support both security and mission‑critical UAS operations.
