An Open-Platform Approach to Digital Evidence Capture and Management

Digital evidence management has become a key component in modern policing, especially as law enforcement agencies generate a growing amount of digital evidence from dashcams, body-worn cameras, police and in-vehicle audio data, cell phone images, computer images and forensic data, social media posts, private/public video data, and cryptocurrency. Agencies have the challenge of determining how and where the data will be stored, who owns the data and how to maintain data integrity, among other concerns.

Open-platform law enforcement technology improves interoperability in policing systems by allowing different technologies to work together, and it enables agencies to integrate data from diverse sources. As the volume of digital evidence grows, data management becomes even more important. Open-platform systems can streamline body-worn camera data management by allowing agencies to better store, categorize, retrieve, and redact video more efficiently. An open-platform approach supports increased transparency and chain of custody integrity through detailed activity logs and allows intersystem compatibility without compromising security or law enforcement data security.
