The latest episode of “Frontiers of Technology”, produced by the Inter-American Defense Board (IADB), takes us on an informative journey about the importance and challenges faced by geolocation systems. The precision and speed provided by these systems are crucial in a variety of scenarios, from guiding projectiles to coordinating responses to natural disasters.
In the Defense and Security sectors, geolocation plays an even more crucial role. In addition to guiding war artefacts with surgical precision, these systems enable continuous and comprehensive surveillance, facilitating the rapid and effective deployment of security forces in critical situations. However, vulnerability to spoofing and jamming attacks, as well as the protection of geolocation data from interception, highlight complex challenges in this context.
In the next episode, an in-depth discussion of biometric systems technology for Defence and Security will be covered, promising to explore another crucial aspect in our increasingly digitized world.
“Frontiers of Technology” is a weekly journey led by the Inter-American Defense Board, which delves into the latest innovations and debates in the field of Security and Defense. Each episode explores how technology is redefining the future of the Americas, promoting a more secure and united society.
