Body worn and in car cameras are here to stay. They allow agencies to capture valuable digital evidence which can be used to help reveal the truth.

00:14
But, without end-to-end security, from capture to courtroom, the integrity of this evidence could be at risk. So how do we ensure the truth isn’t compromised?

00:25
Out of the box, an S series camera generates a unique public key to provision it in CommandCentral Vault and assign it with a digital certificate.

00:33
When audio and video are later recorded, a private key known only to the device, immediately signs the file.

00:40
Because the file is signed on the device and can be validated when it is uploaded to the cloud, chain-of-custody can be established from the moment of capture.

00:47
Encryption then ensures any unauthorized attempt to access, tamper with or extract the data will fail.

00:54
When the digital evidence is uploaded to be stored in the cloud-based CommandCentral Vault, encryption continues to ensure the evidence is unreadable to anyone trying to intercept it.

01:05
The cloud itself is protected by a number of security measures. This includes cyber security monitoring, intrusion detection technology, firewalls and access control systems as well as physical site security, multi factor authentication and personnel screening.

01:23
Within CommandCentral Vault, further security features like application segmentation prevent full system compromise.

01:31
Securely managing digital evidence is critical to avoid it becoming inadmissible.

01:38
That is why all activity and access to the evidence is automatically logged from the moment of capture through when it is shared, so chain-of-custody remains unquestioned.

01:46
Precautions like creating a replica file during any processing, such as redacting, also ensures the integrity of the original evidence is always preserved.

01:56
So now, when lawyers want proof, indisputable evidence is available, securely delivered, right to their hands.

02:04
Providing this evidence is easily possible with a solution built for the realities of law enforcement today.

02:10
Evidence protected. Data integrity preserved. Proof undeniable. Case closed.
