Commercial drones have created an unprotected vertical approach to critical infrastructure, logistics facilities and high-risk corporate sites.

It proposes a risk-tiered Corporate Counter-Drone Resilience Framework centred on awareness, passive protection, operational continuity, rehearsed response and formal integration with legally authorised authorities.
