Abstract

Blockchain and IoT are strongly impacting how security is being handled using drones. With blockchain and IoT technology in drones, surveillance operations are safer and more trusted. The use of drones is becoming more common which is raising some ethical issues, especially about privacy, security and taking responsibility. This addresses how these main subjects deal with the challenge of keeping people protected and allowing them their rights. It analyzes drone usage in surveillance and studies the privacy concerns and the possibility of bad use of gathered information. Also, it takes care of legal matters regarding such systems, especially with data protection and accountability when using drones. Since drones work on their own, the report states that it is still tough to put guidelines in place that stop misuse. It covers the important issues in using blockchain, the Internet of Things and drones for surveillance and offers approaches to deal with these issues and gain the benefits of their use.
