Application of the unified kill chain model for commercial unmanned aircraft systems

The purpose of the article is to analyze the applicability of The Unified Kill Chain model for unmanned aircraft systems, the benefits for ensuring the information security of unmanned aerial systems due to the use of this model. In this work, the authors use the method of system analysis of open sources on the topic, as well as synthesis based on it. The application of these methods resulted in the stages of The Unified Kill Chain model described in relation to unmanned aerial systems and the development of approaches to minimizing actual threats to the safety of unmanned aerial systems. The presented article is one of the first works devoted to the use of The Unified Kill Chain for UAS’ information security.
