Explains how the latest technologies can advance policing and security, identify threats, and defend citizens from crime and terrorism.
Scientific innovation in the area of security solutions for citizen safety has leapt ahead following the exponential increase in the capability to collect, store, and process information from various sources. The enhancements in the field of device connectivity through networking and their onboard computational power have enabled algorithmic intelligence to be deployed both at the cloud and also at edge devices. Such computing systems have also extended beyond traditional modalities of data processing to include new forms of data analytics, resulting from recent innovations in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) solutions. The ever‐increasing diverse data modalities and the ability to extract hidden patterns and relevant information through advanced data correlation have simultaneously enhanced the investigative capabilities of the law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in securing European society and citizens against foreseeable threats and terrorist attacks. The technological advancements in the field of information technology (IT) offer a sense of encouragement to equip LEAs to counteract criminal activities carried out by perpetrators.
In contrast to the classic tools available for LEAs (such as guns, handcuffs, and other less harmful weapons), the new approach to terrorism and crime relies on the emergence of technological tools such as mobile devices, AI, Machine Learning, social media tracking, drones, robots, computer vision, and GIS to name a few. As crime, in general, and cybercrime, in particular, become more and more sophisticated, a combination of complex social measures are required, which include prevention, detection, investigation, and prosecution. An effective solution to this problem requires continuous synergy and innovation from interdisciplinary scientific experts and the adoption of technologies into the operational practice of LEAs. Emerging new technologies change the landscape for LEAs, providing new opportunities for improving the effectiveness of problem‐solving and partnership initiatives and assisting in the implementation of organizational changes designed to institutionalize these processes. This book focuses on the development and application of new technologies that police officers could leverage as a tool for both predictive and intelligence‐led investigations and recommends the best practice for incorporation of these technologies into day‐to‐day activities by LEAs.
Security Technologies and Social Implications focuses on the development and application of new technologies that police and homeland security officers can leverage as a tool for both predictive and intelligence-led investigations. The book recommends the best practices for incorporation of these technologies into day-to-day activities by law enforcement agencies and counter-terrorism units. Practically, it addresses legal, technological, and organizational challenges (e.g. resource limitation and privacy concerns) combined with challenges related to the adoption of innovative technologies.
Key topics related to these developments and their implementations covered in Security Technologies and Social Implications include:
New security technologies and how these technologies can be implemented in practice, plus associated social, ethical or policy issues
Expertise and commentary from individuals developing and testing new technologies and individuals using the technologies within their everyday roles
The latest advancements in commercial and professional law enforcement technologies and platforms
Commentary on how technologies can advance humanity by making policing and security more efficient and keeping citizens safe
Security Technologies and Social Implications serves as a comprehensive resource for defense personnel and law enforcement staff, practical security engineers, and trainee staff in security and police colleges to understand the latest security technologies, with a critical look at their uses and limitations regarding potential ethical, regulatory, or legal issues.
