Top three benefits of using drones for security
From quicker responses to more flexible coverage and greater efficiency
Faster Incident Response
Drones can be launched immediately to assess incidents from above, providing a live, detailed aerial view of the site. This rapid insight lets security teams respond faster, track real-time developments, and make informed decisions on the spot.
Mobile Surveillance
Unlike fixed cameras, drones provide mobile surveillance, allowing operators to track moving targets, cover blind spots and quickly reposition as needed, ensuring no area is left unmonitored.
Efficient Site Protection
Drones reduce the reliance on extensive ground patrols by covering large areas efficiently from the air. This allows organisations to monitor sites with fewer personnel and less equipment, lowering costs while still maintaining high levels of security.
Remote drone operations Vs on-site piloted drones
Compare automated drone deployment with on-site piloted missions for security operations.
Automated drone in a box system
Remotely pilot off-site
Drone-in-a-box systems such as the DJI Dock collection, allow for immediate flight launches remotely, enabling 24/7 surveillance without on-site staff. Operators can deploy drones on demand, schedule routine patrols, or trigger flights automatically via alarms, all from a central command centre. This approach is ideal for large, remote, or high-risk sites that require continuous monitoring and rapid, unattended response.
How drones support real-world security operations
Practical uses across industries, from site protection to event security
Prisons
Patrol perimeters and monitor restricted zones. Detect contraband drops and prevent them from entering the grounds.
Construction sites
Conduct site-wide surveillance, monitor access points, and help prevent theft or vandalism.
Ports
Cover large dock areas, track vehicle and cargo movements, and assist with customs and border control.
Borders
Extend the reach of ground teams, surveying remote or inaccessible stretches for unauthorised crossings.
Critical infrastructure
Regular drone patrols inspect and protect power stations, substations, and communication towers. Early threat detection reduces downtime and prevents damage or disruption.
Asset protection
Safeguard high-value assets by quickly monitoring storage yards, parking lots, or warehouses. Drone patrols can help deter intruders.
Mines
Monitor site boundaries, equipment, and personnel safety. Identify unauthorised entry and obtain enhanced situational awareness for emergency response.
Event security
Drones support effective crowd management by providing real-time views of large gatherings, monitoring entry points, and detecting suspicious behaviour or crowding.

Protect your sensitive information
Robust data security protocols
DJI puts users in control of their data, continuously enhancing the security and privacy features built into every drone. All personal information, such as names and email addresses used for account registration, is stored with AES-256 encryption for maximum protection. Operators can activate Local Data Mode, which keeps the flight app completely offline and prevents data from being sent over the internet. Drones can also be operated and updated without an internet connection, and a non-decryptable security code can be added for extra security. These features help safeguard sensitive information at every stage of your operations.
Software suite
Mission planning, fleet management, and 3D mapping
Streamline security mission planning, drone fleet management, and situational awareness with DJI’s software tools. Use FlightHub 2 to oversee live operations, schedule automated patrols, and set geofences, ideal for coordinating site-wide surveillance and rapid incident response. For post-incident review or perimeter analysis, DJI Terra processes and shares 2D maps, 3D models, and LiDAR point clouds, helping security teams make informed decisions and maintain accurate records.
DroneControl software for security operations
Live site monitoring and fleet management
DroneControl software streamlines security drone operations by enabling real-time site monitoring and centralised management of pilots and fleets. Security teams benefit from live video feeds, remote control, and enhanced data security—ideal for surveillance, perimeter checks, and rapid incident response.
