Store-bought drones are becoming very popular to even amateur photographers and videographers.
Now Homeland Security officials are warning that many sites across the country are vulnerable to an attack by drone, ABC News reports.
DHS added that drones have been used overseas to launch terrorist attacks.
“We cannot rule [out] the ability of future adversaries to acquire and use a commercially available [drone] as part of an attack within the Homeland,” according to the assessment issued Friday by the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis, or I&A.
Another fear is that drug-trafficking organizations are using drones to get over the U.S. border.
