This paper explores the growing threat of hybrid warfare, with a focus on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and drone technology in modern conflict. Hybrid warfare, which integrates both traditional military tactics and advanced technologies like AI, drones, and data surveillance, poses significant risks to global security and national sovereignty. This study examines the implications of these technologies for national security, privacy, and ethics, using the zhenhua Data information technologh, DJI & Autel Roboticscase as a key example. The research highlights the urgent need for international regulations and standards to govern the deployment of AI and drones in warfare, addressing emerging threats while safeguarding privacy. Through a qualitative methodology, including case study analysis, literature review, and expert interviews, the paper reveals the current lack of global regulatory frameworks and provides recommendations for stricter data protection laws, increased transparency, and global cooperation. The findings advocate for the creation of a unified, ethical framework to ensure the responsible use of AI and drones in the future. This research study recommended that Governments and international bodies must create binding standards for AI and drone use in warfare, focusing on privacy, surveillance, and ethical deployment. Stricter data protection laws should be enforced, ensuring transparency and consumer control. Independent oversight bodies must monitor these technologies for responsible use. Global cooperation is needed to develop international treaties that regulate their deployment. Public awareness campaigns are essential to educate citizens on the risks and benefits of AI and drones.
