How DHS Is Helping World Cup Host Cities Get Counter-UAS Ready Before FIFA 2026

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is enhancing security measures in cities hosting the FIFA World Cup 2026 by providing guidance on counter-drone technology. As part of a broader initiative to establish effective counter-unmanned aerial systems (UAS) protocols, the DHS aims to protect high-profile sporting events and critical infrastructure from potential threats posed by drones. This effort is crucial as the tournament approaches, ensuring that host cities are adequately prepared to mitigate risks associated with careless or hostile drone activity. The collaboration underscores the importance of safeguarding public safety during major international events.
