#LawEnforcement agencies are undergoing major transformations driven by new technologies. Our recent blog covers 3 key advancements for modernizing policing and enhancing #publicsafety. Gain insights here: https://ow.ly/9MsW50SeeEJ

With the world of technology ever changing, demands on modern policing have become broader and more complex. In this Policing Insight article we look at how technology can actually be used to empower victims and survivors, and how officers can benefit from it while re-building trust and confidence.

We open the post Easter week with an excellent article from Professor Dr Eric Halford. There is a general consensus that Policing has been 'behind the curve' when it comes to adopting a Digital and AI 'toolkit' for crime detection / prevention. Whilst this would have no doubt been impacted by available funding, Police Services do need a consistent stream of candidates that have the necessary experience and qualifications to deliver Digital and Forensic Strategy. What do we think are the key challenges in attracting top talent into Digital Policing? #Policereform #digitalpolicing

Charlotte Hails MSc makes a valid argument in this article with #policinginsight around the need for connectivity between policing and private sector. "Getting the basics right first," requires an understanding of the crime, resource and demand data to ensure that operational efficiencies are achieved through decision making from analysis.

Policing Insight has released a comprehensive report about the use of facial recognition technologies by policing authorities. An outline of the report and other details can be found at the link below: https://lnkd.in/enr_fkE3 #FRT #FacialRecognitionTechnology #UCDDigitalPolicy #DigitalPolicyIE

With policing facing an expanding array of increasingly complex crime challenges, there is huge potential for digital transformation to help forces tackle that burden; Charlotte Hails MSc, Justice & Policing Lead for Virgin Media O2 Business, argues that closer partnerships between policing and the private sector could help to overcome some of the existing constraints, and unlock the operational efficiencies that can enable forces to thrive. ❝From data silos, outdated IT, and a lack of integration across police systems, significant issues persist that impact how people across all functions of policing carry out their roles.❞ ❝Over the years, individual tech procurements have created an incredibly complex IT landscape, leaving a mass of legacy systems that are preventing interoperability – a major challenge facing UK forces.❞ ❝Just 27% of police forces rely on their external partners to help increase performance through digital transformation. This means that there is room for most of the UK’s police forces to gain more value from their private sector relationships.❞ ❝Officers and staff need to work in an environment that enables them to operate to the best of their ability. What is clear is that innovation in policing cannot be achieved without getting the basics right first.❞ https://lnkd.in/eyxWPnXp #lawenforcement #policing #police #technology #digitaltransformation

ACRS - VIC Chapter Webinar - Cameras Vs Policing - Wednesday 18 October 2023 - 12:00pm - 1:00pm AEDT Join Glenn Weir, Assistant Commissioner of the Victoria Police, Neville Taylor APM, Victoria’s fourth Road Safety Camera Commissioner, and Alexander Jannink, Managing Director of Acusensus, for this thought provoking discussion regarding the challenges faced by both Victoria Police, independent providers that collaborate with governments and commercial stakeholders to tackle distracted driving and the Office of the Road Safety Camera Commissioner. In order to reduce road trauma, how can we get the balance right? How has policing evolved over time? How has this technology been implemented and how was the process? How can improvements be made and facilitation of open and transparent collaboration been made between the road safety partners and independent providers? What is the way forward?
