[New] POLICE PERSPECTIVE:

From browsing the internet, to accessing social media, banking and shopping online, it is fair to say our world has gone digital.

Public expectations of how they interact with policing are changing. The public now expect us to have a significant online presence, with a similar level of functionality and ease of use to other services they access on a daily basis.

While many advances in technology have huge benefits on how people communicate and transact, digital or ‘cyber’ crimes have increased significantly in recent years. In addition, the volume of digital evidence will only continue to increase.

Policing has to adapt and respond to the digital environment, to ensure it can relentlessly pursue criminals, protect the vulnerable, and reduce crime, wherever that occurs. Here are just a few of the topics that will help ensure the policing team keep on top of the digital world.

The Policing Vision 2025

The Policing Vision 2025 will set out how digital policing will:

• Make it easier for the police and public to communicate with each other

• Improve digital investigations and intelligence

• Transfer all information with the Criminal Justice System (CJS) digitally Digital Policing Portfolio (DPP)

The DPP is a national delivery organisation that will support the evolution of policing, enabling forces to respond and adapt to the increasingly digital world we live in. It is responsible for delivering the Policing Vision 2025 by developing nationally consistent services and capabilities enabled by technology. The solutions developed will enable forces to meet the changing demands of the public, more effectively prevent and investigate crime and better handle digital evidence.

Digital Intelligence and Investigation (DII)

Enabling policing to protect the public through preventing and detecting crime in a society that is becoming increasingly digital:

• Improving the knowledge and skills of frontline officers and staff to address digital crime

• Ensuring the specialist capability to respond to cyber-crime

• Building and maintaining capabilities in the fast moving digital environment
