A system for providing integrated detection and countermeasures against unmanned aerial vehicles include a detecting element, a location determining element and an interdiction element. The detecting element detects an unmanned aerial vehicle in flight in the region of, or approaching, a property, place, event or very important person. The location determining element determines the exact location of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The interdiction element can either direct the unmanned aerial vehicle away from the property, place, event or very important person in a non-destructive manner, or can cause disable the unmanned aerial vehicle in a destructive manner.

A method of detecting a replay attack on a voice biometrics system comprises: receiving an audio signal representing speech; detecting a magnetic field; determining if there is a correlation between the audio signal and the magnetic field; and if there is a correlation between the audio signal and the magnetic field, determining that the audio signal may result from a replay attack.

Apparatus for establishing a wireless connection with a mobile communication device includes a transceiver arranged to transmit a set of broadcast control signals on a first carrier, thereby to enable the establishing of the wireless connection between the transceiver and the mobile communication device. The apparatus further includes one or more transmitters each arranged to transmit a respective interference signal for interfering with broadcast control signals transmitted on a respective one or more carriers different from the first carrier by a respective one or more base stations of a mobile communications network.

Disclosed are an anti-drone method using a GPS spoofing signal and a system thereof. According to an embodiment of the inventive concept, an anti-drone method may include injecting a GPS spoofing signal to analyze a drone feature of a target drone and hijacking the target drone by injecting a GPS spoofing signal into the target drone based on a drone hijacking strategy corresponding to the analyzed drone feature among predefined drone hijacking strategies. The analyzing of the drone feature may include injecting the GPS spoofing signal to analyze a safety device mechanism (GPS fail-safe) and a path-following algorithm of the target drone.

An exemplary radio fingerprint-based indoor localization method and system is disclosed that is resistant to spoofing or jamming attacks (e.g., at nearby radios, e.g., access points), among other types of interference. The exemplary method and system may be applied in the configuring of a secured convolutional neural network (S-CNNLOC) or secured deep neural network configured for attack-resistant fingerprint-based indoor localization.

Techniques pertaining to enhanced long range (ELR) communication schemes in wireless communications are described. An apparatus (e.g., a station (STA)) performs an ELR communication by either: (i) transmitting an ELR physical-layer protocol data unit (PPDU); or (ii) receiving the ELR PPDU. The ELR PPDU includes a spoofing preamble, an ELR preamble and an ELR data portion.

A programmable radio frequency (RF) memory system includes a receiver designed to receive an RF pulse, a memory, a waveform transform module, and a transmitter. The memory stores a digitized version of the RF pulse. The waveform transform module is designed to determine one or more characteristics of the digitized version of the RF pulse, and based on the determined one or more characteristics, transform the digitized version of the RF pulse into a transformed signal. The transformed signal has at least one characteristic that is different than the one or more characteristics. The transmitter is designed to transmit an analog equivalent of the transformed signal. The analog equivalent of the transformed signal and the received RF pulse are coherent.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for a privacy blocking device configured to prevent receipt, by a listening device, of video and/or audio data until a trigger occurs. A blocker may be configured to prevent receipt of video and/or audio data by one or more microphones and/or one or more cameras of a listening device. The blocker may use the one or more microphones, the one or more cameras, and/or one or more second microphones and/or one or more second cameras to monitor for a trigger. The blocker may process the data. Upon detecting the trigger, the blocker may transmit data to the listening device. For example, the blocker may transmit all or a part of a spoken phrase to the listening device.
