How we support blue light services.

Emergency services are facing unique challenges around the means and methods by which they capture, store and share highly sensitive citizen data.

Securely harnessing the power and potential of big data remains a strategic priority, as set out in policies like the National Policing Digital Strategy (NPDS). This includes improving collaboration between partners and agencies in regard to digitising core processes, balancing regional and national priorities, and the sharing of new capabilities, knowledge and R&D. Moving away from inflexible and costly legacy technologies and services is the first step.

The pandemic accelerated the rate at which applications, data, devices and users are moving off premises. Legacy network and security solutions are struggling to support the evolving demands of the sector.

A modern networking solution can deliver secure hybrid and multicloud connectivity, support increased traffic volumes, improve real time communications, reduce operational costs and facilitate digital growth, all of which are addressed by our platform.

BLUE LIGHT FAQS

Answering your blue light FAQ’s

In the police and blue light sector, cloud technology is used for secure data storage, real-time communication, and rapid information sharing. It enables access to critical systems like body-worn camera footage, case files, and criminal databases from any location.

Cloud-based AI supports predictive policing, facial recognition, and incident analysis. It also enhances emergency response coordination, allowing multiple agencies to collaborate efficiently while ensuring compliance with UK data protection laws and cybersecurity standards.

The network is vital to the police and blue light sector as it enables real-time communication, data sharing, and coordination between emergency services. A reliable and secure network supports critical systems such as radio communications, body-worn cameras, Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), and emergency dispatch.

It ensures officers and responders have instant access to live data, including suspect records, location tracking, and incident reports. In high-pressure situations, a strong network enhances response times, situational awareness, and public safety, while also ensuring compliance with cybersecurity and data protection regulations.

Security is crucial for the police and blue light sector to protect sensitive data, ensure operational integrity, and maintain public trust. Emergency services handle confidential information, including criminal records, victim details, and intelligence reports, which must be safeguarded from cyber threats, unauthorised access, and data breaches.
