Innovation is at the heart of all security policies

Law enforcement and approaches to urban security have evolved significantly over the last 20 years. In parallel, technology has improved on how data is captured, stored, and used.

Big Data and services offered thanks to cloud computing allow users to make sense of increasing quantities of data at ever more competitive prices.

The rate at which new technologies and approaches are adopted by a city will be determined by several key factors that drive technology implementation. These factors include the threat faced by the city in terms of crime, terrorism, or environmental hazards, and the wealth of the city, or their access to external financing.
