Drone Attack Range

Learn the drone attack surface by working inside it.

Red Team missions teach how UAS weaknesses emerge across software, communications, navigation, sensors and supporting infrastructure. All exercises run inside isolated, authorized environments.

Mission Families

Seven areas of the UAS attack surface.

Reconnaissance & attack-surface mapping

Identify what makes up a target UAS and where trust boundaries live.

Telemetry & command-link security

Test the assumptions built into command-and-telemetry links.

Protocol & authentication weaknesses

Examine how commonly used UAS protocols handle authentication.

Embedded & companion-computer

Investigate vulnerabilities in onboard general-purpose systems.

Navigation & sensor deception

Understand how positioning and sensor inputs can be misled — conceptually.

Mission-data confidentiality

Explore how mission data could be exposed and how to prevent it.

Supply-chain & configuration

Trace risk introduced through components and configuration drift.

Learning Outcomes

What you'll be able to do.

  • Recognize the major UAS trust boundaries
  • Understand how cyber and physical effects can connect
  • Document attack paths and evidence
  • Communicate risk to engineering and operations teams
  • Recommend mitigations and retest after fixes

All missions run in isolated, simulated environments for authorized training and research.Read our Responsible Use policy →

ZoneOfWar teaches offensive security as a defensive capability. Public pages never provide executable attack recipes — detailed procedures live only inside gated training labs designed for authorized use.
