“…CrazyFlies [169]) are effectively undetectable at sufficient range to allow eavesdropping or spying on confidential facilities, and if the drone is equipped with encryption modules, RF scanners may not detect its approach. A fleet of drones can construct a high security network using advanced micro-computers and lightweighted security schemes [170], [171] that would be impossible to crack until the drones completed their invasion. Indeed, RF scanners may become obsolete unless cracking technology catches up with encryption schemes or adopt working quantum computing devices.…”

This paper presents a comprehensive survey on anti-drone systems. After drones were released for non-military usages, drone incidents in the unarmed population are gradually increasing. However, it is unaffordable to construct a military grade anti-drone system for every private or public facility due to installation and operation costs, and regulatory restrictions. We focus on analyzing antidrone system that does not use military weapons, investigating a wide range of anti-drone technologies, and deriving proper system models for reliable drone defense. We categorized anti-drone technologies into detection, identification, and neutralization, and reviewed numerous studies on each. Then, we propose a hypothetical anti-drone system that presents the guidelines for adaptable and effective drone defense operations. Further, we discuss drone-side safety and security schemes that could nullify current anti-drone methods, and propose future solutions to resolve these challenges.

“…To resist against the physical capturing of drones with minimum exposure of confidential data, Bae and Kim [32] proposed a saveless-based key management and delegation system for a multi-drone system. Nevertheless, the proposed scheme is not compatible with devices having limited on-board energy, or, in this case, UAVs, because the process of key renewal suffers significantly due to scarce available energy.…”

An Efficient and Provably Secure Certificateless Key-Encapsulated Signcryption Scheme for Flying Ad-hoc Network

A Flying Ad-hoc Network (FANET) consists of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) tasked to handle the communication jobs in a multi-hop ad-hoc fashion. Unlike its predecessors, i.e. Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) and Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs), a FANET promises uninterrupted connectivity, especially during events that are temporary and stipulate a massive audience reach. However, usually, the participating UAVs in a FANET environment are resource-constrained and are, therefore, prone to cyber-attacks. In order to resolve the issue and to enable a secure communication between the UAVs and the Base Station (BS), we propose a Certificateless Key-Encapsulated Signcryption (CL-KESC) scheme. The scheme is based on the concept of Certificateless Public Key Cryptography (CL-PKC). Since CL-PKC is immune to key escrow problems and thus one of the major drawbacks of the Identity-based Public Key Cryptography (ID-PKC) is addressed. Unfortunately, the existing construction models of CL-KESC rely on elliptic curve-based operations, which are computationally expensive for small UAVs. To counter the issue, in this paper, we present a new construction model of CL-KESC based on Hyperelliptic Curve Cryptography (HECC). HECC is an advanced version of the elliptic curve and is characterized by smaller parameter and key size. The key size stretches to a maximum of 80-bits, as opposed to the elliptic curve that demands a 160-bits key size. The proposed scheme proved to be superior, chiefly in terms of security and performance, as demonstrated by the results obtained from the security verification and by carrying out comparative analysis with the existing counterparts.

“…The significance of saveless property is that the drone spares least secret information in its storage. Here all group session keys are not equivalent, just drones which are same-hop from the GCS have a similar session key, which is unique in relation to other gathering key administration frameworks [4]. These session keys are produced by the hash chain work, so one of the drones can realize the other's session key, and they can speak with one another.…”

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), or Drone communication, are developing areas of research that can be used in fields of military, hospital or agriculture. Drone communication keeps up associations among drones and a ground station with a satisfactory information rate for sustaining ongoing transmissions. The communication is imparted between one another through RF. This communication is over the air and it should be encrypted. This guarantees an attacker can't comprehend the caught data. The ongoing research areas focus on efficiently encrypting the channel to make it secure and reducing the dependency on GCS for key generation. This paper proposes a key trade protocol for secure drone to drone communication. Normally in a drone communication, the communication between the Ground Control Station(GCS) and the drones are encrypted utilizing the URANUSLink protocol. The drone to drone communication occurs through the ground station which takes a lot of communication time and resources. Additionally, if an immediate drone to drone communication is built up it is significantly decoded or sets aside the need for effective and secure key generation functions. To overcome the previously mentioned issue the proposed protocol defeats the computation and storage issues by utilizing parameters like Drone ID(DID), Mission ID(MID), Timestamp and Nonce alongside hashing capacities for the key age and communication process. The proposed protocol consists of three phases: i)Registration- the new drones are assigned with DID and MID after registering with the GCS ii)Group-Key Generation- the key is generated using hash functions and iii) Communication Establishment- the keys are exchanged and verified before the communication starts. This protocol guarantees forward secrecy, reverse secrecy and insurance from attacks like eavesdropping, spoofing, replay, and physical capture attacks. AVISPA is utilized for the security examination of the protocol.
