by DRONELIFE Staffr Writer Ian M. Crosby

Today, smart airspace security market leader Dedrone and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, announced a strategic partnership that will bring the anti-drone security solution to the Public Sector. This new agreement will see Carahsoft serve as Dedrone’s Master Government Aggregator®, making Dedrone’s smart airspace technology available through Carahsoft’s Illinois Learning Technology Purchase Program (ILTPP) and NJSBA Technology & Cybersecurity contract, as well as its network of reseller partners.

“With the ever-increasing use of drones in both productive and nefarious missions in our skies, Carahsoft is excited to make Dedrone’s smart airspace security solution available to our joint customers,” said Carahsoft’s Manager of Geospatial Solutions, Lacey Wean. “With installations in 33 countries and hundreds of deployments worldwide, including the Governments of four of the G-7 nations and 9 U.S. Federal agencies, we are confident that Dedrone will deliver the results that our customers and resellers need.”

Deployed by U.S. Government agencies both within the country and abroad, Dedrone is used to detect, identify, track, analyze and mitigate small, unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS). DedroneTracker, Dedrone’s C2 platform, is built on an Open Systems Architecture (OSA), enabling seamless integration to any third-party sensor, stovepipe CsUAS capabilities, alternative mitigation solutions, and common Department of Defense’s (DoD) C2 systems.

“We are thrilled to be Carahsoft’s counter-drone solution partner and leverage Carahsoft’s Public Sector expertise to expand the availability for our complete airspace security solution within the Federal market,” said Rob Campbell, Dedrone’s Vice President of the North America Public Sector. “Through this partnership, Government customers now have simplified access to complete counter-drone solutions to protect their people, property and information from malicious drone threats.”
