Managed Counter-UAS Protection for European Critical Infrastructure
CEO at CENDEF
Berlin, Germany
About
CENDEF — Central Defence Command delivers Counter-UAS airspace protection for European critical infrastructure as a managed service, not a system to buy. Energy grids, logistics hubs and industrial sites face a drone threat that is real today, while countering it remains a capital-heavy project most operators cannot run alone.
We own one accountable cycle, end to end:
-
Audit — Based on the site, its airspace exposure and threat profile, we define the actual protection requirement.
-
Consultancy — Based on that requirement, we set the proportionate protection concept and the regulatory pathway for lawful active countermeasures.
-
Defence-ready — Based on the technical options available, we engineer and configure the containerised system to the specific site.
-
Implementation — We deploy on site with minimal disruption and validate the system against the defined threat.
-
Operation — We run it as a managed service, billed monthly, with continuous monitoring and threat-model updates.
The result: drone defence moves from a multi-million capital project to a predictable operating cost, the way fire protection became insurance rather than a private fire brigade. One provider owns the outcome, from first audit to live protection.
Berlin-based, founded by a team combining Deep-Tech leadership, high-power laser and Bundeswehr engineering expertise — for European operators who cannot afford to wait for the state.
