  • Patent number: 11522897
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, a computer program product, and a computer system for a drone-based network vulnerability detection system. According to embodiments of the present invention, a drone receives routes and protocols for detecting and resolving network vulnerabilities. The drone identifies one or more electronic devices connected to one or more networks within an area of interest and detects one or more network vulnerabilities of the one or more electronic devices. If the drone detects a vulnerability, the drone updates a command center and identifies a resolution to the one or more network vulnerabilities. The drone then resolves the one or more network vulnerabilities based on the identified resolution.
