FBI and CISA warn of threats posed by Chinese drones

Chinese drones continue to pose a significant risk to critical infrastructure and a country’s national security. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has enacted laws that provide their government with expanded legal grounds for accessing and controlling data held by Chinese companies.

The use of these Chinese UAS is a risk to networks and sensitive information. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) encourage U.S. critical infrastructure owners and operators to procure UAS that follow secure-by-design principles, such as those found on the Blue UAS clear list.
