Abstract:

In the latest years, the popularity of commercial drones has grown rapidly due to their cheaper costs and great availability on the market. The great diffusion of remotely piloted devices unfortunately leads to several security and safety concerns that need to be tackled. In this paper, we consider a fingerprint-based drone detection approach relying on the analysis of WiFi traffic features to identify the presence of unauthorized devices. In particular, we study the statistical distribution of the features composing the fingerprint vector, and we propose an adversarial approach to drone detection in order to invalidate the reliability of the surveillance system, by introducing fake ad-hoc traffic features. Results show that our novel approach is able to deceive the drone detection system through the introduction of flows belonging to arbitrary traffic classes. Also, the proposed adversarial method provides the expected significant impact on the performance of the system, actually reducing the recognition accuracy to about 50%.
