Operational Capabilities

UAS/C-UAS Capabilities

ClearPoint Aero organizes its UAS/C-UAS capabilities into four operational pillars: Operations, Assessments, Response and Training. Each pillar covers a distinct part of the engagement, from persistent airspace awareness through vulnerability assessment, incident response and personnel certification. Vendor-neutral across sensors and platforms, and planned around the decision the work has to support.

Four Operational Pillars

One discipline, four ways it reaches your airspace.

Where Capabilities Fit

The engagement model that connects the four pillars.

STEP 01 · SURVEYDelivered by AssessmentsEstablish the site, surrounding airspace, and existing activity.
STEP 02 · ASSESSDelivered by AssessmentsIdentify threats, vulnerabilities, and gaps in coverage.
STEP 03 · EXERCISEDelivered by ResponseTest how your personnel and procedures handle an incident.
STEP 04 · IMPLEMENTDelivered by OperationsPut the selected technology and operating procedures into practice.
STEP 05 · SUSTAINDelivered by Training + OperationsMaintain readiness through training and ongoing operational support.

Entry is possible at any stage. Survey, under Assessments, is the natural first step.

Common questions

Which capability should we start with?

A DVRA, the core Assessments capability, is a practical starting point. It establishes the baseline that the other three pillars build from, whether that leads to standing up detection under Operations, rehearsing a response under Response, or certifying personnel under Training.

Do we need all four pillars, or can we engage one at a time?

Entry is possible at any stage of the engagement model. An organization may need only a Technology Briefing under Assessments. Others move through Survey, Assess, Exercise, Implement and Sustain over a longer period. The pillars are designed to connect, not to be sold as a bundle.

Is any of this specific to a hardware platform?

No. ClearPoint holds no hardware line across any of the four pillars. Detection and monitoring technology is selected on the merits of the site under assessment, not from a fixed product catalog.

What is the difference between Assessments and Response?

Assessments looks at a site before an incident, establishing exposure and gaps. Response acts during and after one, covering forensics, mitigation strategy and coordination with the agencies that hold interdiction authority. Table Top Exercises sit under both, because the same exercise both surfaces gaps and rehearses the answer.

Does Training stand on its own, or does it depend on an assessment first?

Training can be engaged on its own where an organization already has a defined certification need. It comes in at Sustain, the final step of the engagement model, so that certification reflects the specific threat profile and procedures established earlier in the engagement.
