Many amateur and professional UAS platforms rely on the MAVLink telemetry protocol for UAS command and control and flight telemetry. Oftentimes, this messaging protocol is paired with the SiK radio, which has been shown to be an insecure network implementation for UAS telemetry. Due to the SiK radio’s lack of message confidentiality or integrity, it is susceptible to frame injections from a remote radio, which can be used to hijack or otherwise disrupt the operation of a UAS.
