iCrime Fighter is the new mobile law enforcement application from At-Scene, an enterprise mobile solutions provider, designed to deliver fast, secure, field data collection using smartphones and other mobile devices.
The solution features an iCrime Fighter app that enables officers in the field to quickly capture important field notes, evidence, images, videos and audio statements at the scene and upload them to icrimefighter.com website.
The company has also released an FIPS 140-2 compliant enterprise version-- iCrime Fighter Enterprise --with advanced encryption to ensure safe uploading of data to the AWS GovCloud for secure evidence storage and immediate reporting or dissemination to other officers, departments or law enforcement agencies.
The iCrime Fighter app and iCrime Fighter Enterprise for iOS and Android (News - Alert) devices are now available.
AWS GovCloud, according to At-Scene officials, is a secure cloud service developed for and used by the federal government and law enforcement agencies. The service is designed to provide national-scale, secure data storage that scales from a one-man department to large agencies.
“With iCrime Fighter Enterprise, we upload and store all data on the highly secure AWS GovCloud, enabling easy access to the data as needed with no risk of SD cards, photos, audio files, statements or notes being misfiled or tied-up in back-logged evidence rooms,” said Mario Galasso, former police sergeant and CEO of At-Scene, in a statement.
At-Scene claims the iCrime Fighter app has been already downloaded and reviewed by more than 10,000 users in law enforcement agencies worldwide. Since it works with all popular mobile platforms like iOS and Android, the technology is easily accessible to everyone.
iCrime Fighter takes advantage of the most useful smartphone and mobile device features for gathering evidence and that all uploaded information is secured and stored using advanced encryption technology.
“Before my agency began using the iCrime Fighter mobile evidence platform, it was difficult to use smart devices for evidence collection due to concerns about data security and difficulty pulling data from individual apps,” said Amos Halava, police officer and IT professional for the Watauga Police Department, Watauga, Tennessee.
Halava added the mobile evidence platform has helped the agency to spend less time juggling multiple pieces of equipment so they can better focus on gathering the evidence and statements they need. “Being able to immediately file the information in a secure way means we save even more time back at the office when it comes to filing reports and logging evidence,” Halava added.
