The Safer Skies Act, enacted as part of the FY 2026 National Defense Authorization Act, marks a significant shift by authorizing trained and certified state and local law enforcement to not only detect and track drones that pose a public safety risk, but also, where permitted, to safely mitigate those threats.<\/p>\n<p>\nConsumer and commercial drones are increasingly used for malicious activities. D-Fend\u2019s solution supports operational continuity for authorized drones to perform their assigned tasks, by isolating and safely removing rogue drones from the airspace. This helps avoid collateral damage and costly area-wide shutdowns.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cRogue drones have transformed our skies into a landscape of unpredictable risk, where simple detection is no longer enough,\u201d said Greg Brown, chairman and CEO of Motorola Solutions. \u201cWith D-Fend, drone threats are not just identified \u2014 their communications are overridden and redirected, safely bringing them to the ground, keeping people and communities safe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cJoining Motorola Solutions allows us to accelerate our mission of securing the skies,\u201d said Zohar Halachmi, chairman and CEO of D-Fend Solutions. \u201cBy leveraging Motorola Solutions\u2019 deep expertise and long-term customer relationships across public safety, federal and enterprise, we can deliver even greater impact to the communities and organizations we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to required regulatory approvals and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
