DHS/S&T/PIA-034 Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems Program

The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Science & Technology Directorate (S&T) is leading DHS efforts and coordinating across the Federal Government testing and evaluating technologies used to detect, identify, and monitor small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) that may pose a potential threat to covered facilities and assets and other missions authorized to the Department by law. These protective technologies are referred to as Counter-UAS (C-UAS). This Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) discusses measures taken to mitigate privacy risks and protect personally identifiable information (PII) during S&T’s testing and evaluation of C-UAS technologies.
