What Negative Consequences can come out of this project?

When utilizing drone technology for law enforcement, there is the potential for drones to be abused or not used for their intended design. W.A.V.E makes use of drones that have non-lethal abilities. If a user recklessly deploys our technology, this can cause damage to law enforcement personnel as well as innocent civilians. We care deeply about our customers, and those who may be affected by are technology. This also causes us to think about potential attempts from cyber attackers to override user commands on our drones. If a user takes control of the drone, invaders may attempt to compromise confidential data regarding our customers, aside from the possibility of physical harm. Drones use 802.11 signaling that travels over airwaves; readers should keep this in mind as this has a larger attack surface than connected signals. Law enforcement and commercial organizations may lose capital from data loss affecting their business performance.
