RESILIENCE 2025: Protecting Infrastructure Against UAS Threats
RESILIENCE 2025 is a professional conference dedicated to strengthening the resilience of strategic infrastructure in the face of evolving security threats. Its aim is to support the exchange of knowledge, lessons learned and best practices, raise awareness of current threats and trends, and foster cooperation between experts from different countries and sectors. The concept of resilience has become a key element of European and national strategies for the protection of critical and strategic infrastructure.
The Institute for Strategic Infrastructure Security, as the organiser of the conference, focuses on improving security and resilience across key sectors such as energy, transport, healthcare, ICT, public administration and logistics. RESILIENCE 2025 builds on this mission and addresses the practical implications of new types of threats, including unmanned systems, cyberattacks and hybrid scenarios targeting vital infrastructure.
JISR Institute contributed to the conference with a live demonstration of a C-UAS C2 system presented in the context of protecting strategic infrastructure against unmanned aircraft systems. The showcased solution is designed as a sensor- and effector-agnostic C2 platform capable of integrating various detection and effect technologies into a single tactical operational picture.
During the demonstration, we presented a concept in which the C-UAS C2 system connects, for example:
- RF-based sensors for UAS detection and localisation,
- 3D radar systems optimised for low, slow and small targets,
- electro-optical / infrared sensors for visual identification,
- different types of effectors – from jamming systems to kinetic or other neutralisation means.
This integrated approach allows operators to:
- detect and track UAS in the vicinity of a protected site or area,
- verify and classify targets based on data fusion from multiple sensors,
- select an appropriate response in line with rules of engagement and the criticality of the protected asset,
- document the incident and generate records for after-action analysis and future planning.
The presentation also highlighted the scalability of the solution – the same C-UAS C2 system can be deployed at the level of a single site (e.g. power plant, logistics hub, hospital) as well as across a wider infrastructure network or region. This reflects the broader European and national trend of enhancing resilience across sectors and creating interconnected security ecosystems.
By taking part in RESILIENCE 2025, JISR Institute underlines its position as one of the leading providers of C-UAS C2 solutions for the protection of strategic and critical infrastructure. Our systems enable the key capabilities required for modern UAS defence – from detection and situational awareness through decision-support and automation to the coordination of appropriate countermeasures.
The conference also demonstrated the importance of close cooperation between infrastructure operators, the armed forces and technology partners. We see this synergy as essential for achieving real resilience – not only at the level of individual technologies, but at the level of an integrated system capable of responding effectively to current and future threats.
