Countering "backdoor" threats with ADS-B and AIS-enhanced radar/video surveillance - Story
January 21, 2016
Countering the growing "backdoor" threat posed by terrorists, smugglers, pirates, and political activists at military air and naval bases, airports, and ports requires sophisticated multisensor surveillance systems to ensure that incursions are rapidly detected and actioned.
