A recent interagency reporton sUAS security recommends several steps that were also outlined in this paper. These includedeveloping security procedures in advance, educating the community on use and threats ofsUAS, and involving law enforcement in the process as well.

the pitfalls oftechnology, we must become better stewards of technological change. Unfortunately, weare ill prepared to meet this goal.”Dr. Joseph Bordogna, Deputy Director of the National Science Foundation, and anengineer by training, recognizes the power of collaboration in education when he states:Scientists and engineers are increasingly exploring the rich territory at the bordersamong disciplines. This multidisciplinary research calls for increased collaboration, andfor more integration of knowledge. New clusters will emerge at the moving edge ofdiscovery, and these will inevitably transform the "core" disciplines. We need toaccommodate these transformations in the design of our education and researchactivities.Overview of Deans Summit
