SentryCiv is a compact, fully passive fixed-site drone detection system built for civilian operators who need persistent airspace awareness without emitting RF or disrupting existing communications infrastructure. At its core sits DroneShield's proprietary RfAI engine — the same AI detection logic used in the company's military product line, repackaged for affordability and civilian certification compliance. The unit delivers 360-degree RF situational awareness, identifying the presence and position of both the drone and its operator across commonly used consumer and commercial ISM bands, plus unencrypted Remote ID and Drone ID beacons. The integrated DroneLocator capability goes beyond basic Remote ID tracking to pinpoint operator position — a material improvement for law enforcement response. Buyers access the system under a subscription model rather than a capital purchase, which reduces the procurement threshold and shifts maintenance and software updates to the vendor. Quarterly software updates expand the detection library (150+ models currently identified) and improve threat discrimination. The Sentry-C2 Civ command-and-control platform provides the operator interface: real-time alerts, threat prioritisation, customisable exclusion zones, data logging, and JSON/API hooks for integration with existing site security systems. SentryCiv is specifically positioned for facilities where active jamming is prohibited — airports, power utilities, data centres, sports venues, and government buildings — making it the natural detection layer in a tiered C-UAS architecture where mitigation is handled separately by licensed operators. In the GCC context, where airport authorities and critical-infrastructure operators face an expanding recreational and commercial drone threat but operate under strict spectrum-management regimes, the passive-only design directly addresses the compliance constraint.
