Advanced intelligence now accessible to Command Staff and Uniformed Police
17 January 2024, Washington DC—Siren, the company that provides an all-in-one investigation platform to Police and Sheriff’s Departments, Intelligence and Law Enforcement Agencies, Fusion Centers and High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas programs (HIDTAs) launched the new AI-Powered search capability and mobile access as part of its new Siren for Law Enforcement and Siren Forensics bundles.
At the centre of the largest intelligence data ecosystem globally, Siren addresses a fundamental intelligence challenge for Law Enforcement teams. Siren connects and enriches local classified information with external vendor data as well as data available from public sources, like CompStat, to identify patterns, actors and events. Since today Siren is now also available on a mobile device providing an additional layer of safety for front line officers.
The new AI-driven search functionality dramatically reduces the complexity in searching for intelligence. Advanced links can now be made by anyone from any department without the need of data science skills. According to our own Law Enforcement Flash Poll research, it takes at least 6 months for a new analyst to become productive and this simple interface will relieve the pressure on all involved.
Siren 14 also incorporates link analysis enhancements, the ability to import CSV and Excel files from shared secure folders and dynamic filters. Dynamic filters enable a familiar experience for searching data like browsing the internet or finding items while shopping online. Download a product description from Siren’s website.
New Officer Safety capability on mobile to protect the front line
For the first time, Siren makes it possible for front-line officers to background check suspects and properties from their mobile devices before in-person interactions and site raids. The new Siren innovation offers an extra layer of security for law enforcement and public safety staff, reducing the risk of unexpected dangers and providing fast actionable leads.
Siren Forensics to fast-track Fentanyl investigations
To help combat the continued rise in US Fentanyl deaths and community devastation, Siren Forensics provides smaller teams with the immediate technology, data and skills to investigate Fentanyl cases within three months. Siren Forensics includes mobile access for front line officers.
Siren Law Enforcement to support all types of investigations at Enterprise speed and scale
In addition to providing the complete suite of investigation tools for contemporary Law Enforcement challenges such as Police Vetting, “Smash and Grab” violence, VIP Protection, Trafficking, Supply Chain and Maritime Security, the introduction of Siren to a department helps to address the issues of analyst recruitment, time to effectiveness and retention. In a climate of new and emerging threats, the increasing volume of evolving data types and sources can be overwhelming for teams. Siren is a one-stop technology shop for analysts, command staff and uniformed officers, simplifying investigative work, increasing productivity and streamlining the skill set required for investigations.
“Simple is hard and that’s what we have achieved with Siren 14.” said John Randles, CEO of Siren. “Siren can now provide complex connected intelligence to Command Staff and uniformed Police without data science training. It’s a simple search just like using the internet or shopping online.” he concluded.
“The new ability to search in Siren is excellent news and will push the control of basic investigations and safety checks back out into the hands of those who need it most. As an analyst myself, I am busy enough with complex queries.” said customer of Siren, Kathleen Miles, Head of Client Relations, and Co-Founder of Ex Arca, an open-source research firm. “Siren mobile search will mean that intelligence teams can focus on the work they are trained to do and front line queries are answered immediately on a mobile for the person who needs to know.” she added.
“Siren is now accessible to everyone which is a complete game changer for police departments and intelligence teams. Previously our customers relied on a small number of highly skilled analysts for every search, overburdening and inundating them but now anyone in the organisation can simply search people and entities like they are using the internet. Democratising intelligence across the organisation is a change not seen in twenty years of technology.” commented Bob Griffin, Chairman of Siren.
