Whether to keep prying eyes out of your business or simply stop drones from being in your airspace, the DIY Raspberry Pi Drone Disabler is designed to thwart digital intruders.

The security threat of [drones and UAVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dji-matrice-400) might not seem apparent to some as the technology seems relatively harmless and no more dangerous than a [model airplane](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pavo-femto). However, aside from [recording video](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dji-1), drones can be used for malicious hacking endeavors to gain access to personal networks and information.

The DIY Raspberry Pi Drone Disabler helps to shoot down and disable drones that enter restricted airspace or private property. The full instructions on how to create the anti-drone device can be found over on the MAKE website.
