D-Fend Solutions: Inside the Counter-Drone Operations at 2026 FIFA World Cup

D-Fend Solutions says its EnforceAir counter-drone platform was deployed by more than 20 public safety agencies during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which was hosted across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The company described the effort as one of its largest coordinated operations to date, supporting a layered security approach across dozens of venues. D-Fend said agencies used EnforceAir to help protect stadiums, surrounding areas, critical infrastructure, and other sensitive locations. The platform is presented as cyber-based, aiming to take control of drones without relying on radio-frequency jamming or kinetic methods. D-Fend noted operational details stayed confidential for security reasons.
