Policy, people, and records
Agencies operating detection and warning: attestation and counsel renewals, certified rosters, data minimization, and the semiannual summary.
Counter-Drone Compliance
Authority comes with a calendar.
Once an agency operates under the SAFER SKIES Act, 28 CFR Part 124 sets recurring duties: annual renewals, semiannual summaries, quarterly reviews, data limits, and clocks that start the moment an operation does. Counter-Drone Compliance keeps each one on time and provable.
Who this is for
Programs that are already running.
Every clock, every action
Agencies with mitigation authority: everything above, plus post-operation reports, emergency notices, Part 107 currency, and after-action reviews.
Your side of the arrangement
Owners that host detection equipment or share data with an agency: records and data-sharing terms that line up with the agency's program.
The calendar
What the rule asks of an operating program.
Some duties recur on a schedule. Others start a clock the moment something happens. The three in rust are the ones that run in hours.
- Yearly
Renew the program
Counsel concurrence on the policy and a renewed portal attestation, every year.
- Semiannual
File the summary
Operations, mitigation actions, detection activity, retention and disclosures, and protection requests the agency could not support.
- Quarterly
Review minimization
For standing deployments longer than 30 days, along with purge verification.
- 2 hours
Emergency notices
All required notifications after emergency mitigation.
- 48 hours
Post-operation report
After any mitigation, confiscation, or the end of a notified operation.
- Immediately
Unintended consequences
Notice to the FBI and DHS by the fastest means available.
- 180 days / 6 years
Keep the record right
Records of communications deleted by day 180 unless an exception applies; the audit trail kept at least six years.
Deadlines from 28 CFR Part 124: 124.6, 124.9(g), 124.13, 124.14. The rule does not fix the semiannual reporting dates; confirm them with the FBI.
How it works
Every duty dated. Every completion provable.
Record
People, policy dates, certified roster, protected sites and windows, and mutual aid partners, in one program record.
Schedule
Each rule becomes a dated task: overdue, due within 30 days, or upcoming. Logging an event starts its clock.
Prove
Each task closes with where the proof lives: document, version, date, custodian, and location in your own system.
Report
Post-operation reports, semiannual summaries, and the renewal packet prepared as editable drafts, ready to sign.
Your documents stay in your systems. The service tracks what exists, when it was done, and where it is kept. It does not hold operations plans, sensor data, or control-link content, and it never files on the agency's behalf. Agency staff confirm tasks through a private link on their own schedule.
Pricing
One price list for every agency.
$3,500 fixed
Compliance gap review
For programs built elsewhere: the operating program scored against Part 124, a sample of its records, and a gap list ranked by consequence.
From $4,800 per year
Annual subscription
Detection programs $4,800; interdiction programs $9,000. Renewals, reviews, rule watch, the audit binder, and reports prepared for signature.
Per occurrence
When something happens
Event package $1,500. After-action review $2,500. Federal audit preparation $3,500.
Agencies that complete readiness with CUAS Compliance start the subscription the day the program goes live, with no gap review. New to counter-drone readiness? Start with counter-drone readiness.
Common questions
What compliance officers ask first.
Is this a certification of compliance?
No. The service tracks requirements, deadlines, and evidence so the agency, its counsel, and its auditors can act. Only the agency can attest, and only federal auditors can find it compliant.
Do you store our documents?
No. The record holds dates, names, versions, and where each document lives in your own system. An optional fingerprint (SHA-256) shows a file has not changed since it was recorded.
Do you file reports or notifications for us?
No. Each report arrives as an editable Word draft built from your record: post-operation reports, semiannual summaries, and the annual renewal packet. Your staff verify it, complete the highlighted fields, sign, and submit under the agency’s own portal account. The service tracks that each filing happened on time.
Is this legal advice?
No. Agency counsel reviews and concurs in the policy each year, as the rule requires (124.6(b)).
