Today, drones are used across a wide range of industries, from inspecting sewer systems to conducting critical assessments in refinery production units. For many drone operators, protecting the privacy and security of their data is a top priority. Whether it's safeguarding intellectual property or ensuring the confidentiality of sensitive assets from a national security standpoint, the integrity of the data collected by drones must always be maintained. At our company, we recognize the importance of data security and transparency. Below is a detailed overview of the measures we’ve implemented to ensure the safety and confidentiality of your data. --- Our drones are designed with robust IT security at their core. From the launch of our first product, the Elios 1, we’ve collaborated with organizations managing some of the most critical assets, including over half of the nuclear power plants in the U.S. These facilities rely on our technology to keep personnel safe by avoiding hazardous areas. Additionally, we work closely with major industrial groups where confidentiality is paramount. This has driven us to incorporate strong IT security protocols directly into the design of our drones. One of the unique features of our drones is their ability to operate effectively in signal-deprived environments, such as indoors. Our technology doesn’t depend on external signals like GPS or the internet. Instead, the Ground Control System (GCS) serves as the sole connection point, allowing the drone to function independently. This design ensures that data security is inherent to the drone’s core functionality. Data collected by our drones is stored locally on SD cards located on the drone itself. Operators can also choose to back up recordings on a tablet. These are the only locations where data is stored—never online. After a flight, operators can remove the SD cards to transfer the data to their computers. Neither the drone nor the GCS requires an internet connection while in use, and updates can be performed offline. Even the tablet, which has the potential to connect to the internet, can have its internet access permanently disabled at our facility. The external components of our drones include cameras and a transmission system. Both the Elios 1 and Elios 2 models use DJI Lightbridge 2 radio links. The GCS consists of a DJI controller and a Samsung tablet. The Cockpit app communicates with the drone via an SDK provided by DJI. To activate this communication, a one-time internet connection is required to exchange a token with DJI’s IT infrastructure. This step occurs during post-production testing and is the only interaction with DJI’s systems. After activation, there is no further need for communication between our systems and DJI. All internal components of our drones, from the design to the firmware and apps, are developed in-house. This ensures complete control over the data flow and eliminates any possibility of third-party interference. Furthermore, the link between the GCS and the drone is secure. The uplink is encrypted, making it nearly impossible for unauthorized parties to gain control of the drone. The downlink requires pairing, which can only be achieved manually with specific equipment. The tablet, while capable of connecting to the internet, is rarely connected. When it is, users can save screen recordings as backups. However, we strongly recommend disabling internet access on the tablet to avoid potential vulnerabilities. The Cockpit app installed on the tablet is secure against man-in-the-middle attacks, and updates can be performed offline. For those who prefer offline operations, the entire system can function without any internet connection. Firmware updates for the drone can be downloaded from our secure servers and installed using an SD card. All software and firmware updates are hosted exclusively on our servers, and we encourage users to verify the integrity of files using checksums if necessary. In urgent situations, we can ship SD cards preloaded with the latest firmware. To further enhance data security, operators should follow best practices such as securing the drone and GCS during missions, storing SD cards safely, and deleting data from devices after downloading. For inspection service providers, we suggest starting missions with empty SD cards and transferring data immediately after completion to minimize risks. Public safety operators can fly without SD cards to ensure data remains accessible in case of emergencies. Flyability only collects limited data when the drone is armed and the tablet is connected to the internet. This includes the unit ID, flight time, and firmware version. This data is encrypted and can only be accessed by Flyability. Users are informed of this and can opt-out if desired. Additionally, operators can submit logs for debugging purposes, though this is optional. We’re committed to helping our clients integrate our technology seamlessly into their workflows. Our team works closely with IT departments to address concerns and provide support. If you need assistance or additional information, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Together, we aim to make inspections safer, faster, and more cost-effective. Let us know how we can assist you further.
