Mikko Hyppönen, a veteran in antivirus software and cybersecurity, is transitioning to anti-drone technology due to increasing global threats, especially highlighted by the war in Ukraine. Having worked with F-Secure and then WithSecure, he will join Sensofusion to advance drone detection systems like Airfence. His interest in drones was sparked by regional security concerns, emphasizing the need for better defenses against autonomous drone warfare, which he predicts could lead to advanced robotic combat systems making lethal decisions independently.
Eventually drones will be completely autonomous - they will fly themselves, pick the targets themselves, and make kill decisions themselves, and then we effectively will have killer robots.
The situation isn't very good, and of course, cybersecurity matters, but that's a very well understood problem with a lot of players. So I think this is more important right now.
