Unisys Unveils Digital Investigator™, an Advanced System to Help Law Enforcement Agencies Fight CrimeBLUE BELL, Pa., Oct. 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Unisys Corporation (NYSE: UIS) today announced the availability of the Unisys Digital Investigator™, a new total information management system to allow law enforcement agencies to seamlessly share critical investigative intelligence across applications and agency boundaries. The system, an upgraded version of a solution previously known as the Unisys Law Enforcement Application Framework, includes a public portal which enables citizens to provide information to law enforcement and public safety agencies and track requests from smartphones and other devices. It also integrates with social media analytics to assist in compiling digital evidence. The Unisys "Safe Cities" initiative provides tools and capabilities that can help prevent and combat crime. As a key tool in the Safe Cities portfolio, Digital Investigator goes beyond the capabilities of traditional records management systems to allow organizations to take advantage of information across technological and geographic boundaries. It provides the tools necessary to capture and analyze the increasingly varied and complex data law enforcement professionals need to catch criminals and stop criminal gangs and terrorists. "The Unisys Safe Cities initiative was created to give justice and public safety organizations the solutions they need to better use data from sources like mobile devices and the Internet of Things to create a safe environment for the public," said Mark Forman, global head of public sector at Unisys. "Digital Investigator represents a critical component of this initiative. It gives police departments a tool set that improves productivity through the ability to handle numerous forms of data across multiple lines of inquiry while linking different pieces of related information." When it comes to criminal investigations and intelligence andling, the use of data mining to identify suspects early has emerged as a critical challenge. With so much information available from different sources, law enforcement agencies are grappling with how best to collect, collate and analyze all pieces of evidence, including their movements through the justice system as well as their storage and destruction. Digital Investigator addresses this challenge by providing the capabilities needed to efficiently and successfully manage all police incident and investigative information, including:
