Community Oriented Policing

The movement toward community policing
has gained momentum in recent years as
police and community leaders search for
more effective ways to promote public safety
and to enhance the quality of life in their
communities.
This approach supports the systematic use of
partnerships and problem-solving techniques,
to proactively address the conditions that
give rise to crime and break down the
traditional barriers between law enforcement
and communities.

Consumerization of Technology
The proliferation of powerful cloud, mobile
and social technologies is radically lowering
costs, greatly improving functionality, and
creating users who are ever more technologysavvy.

This trend requires an enhanced focus on

security, particularly in the context of law
enforcement data and information.

Focus on Information Sharing

California is a leader in its commitment to law
enforcement information sharing.
Technology has reduced barriers to information
sharing within and among law enforcement
agencies enabling multi-jurisdictional and multidisciplinary coordinated responses to emergencies
and law enforcement events.
California has embarked on a significant effort to
standardize and provide access to local, state,
and federal data through standards-based datasharing protocols that enable the analysis and
production of actionable intelligence.
