ABM, a specialist in covert policing software, has launched the latest generation of its abmpegasus suite of covert management tools.
The system’s enhanced modules enable police officers to more easily share information in a secure environment while protecting both the public and police through effective management of risk.
The software’s new 5x5x5 intelligence input form means officers can easily export intelligence logs into the standard national information/intelligence report without having to re-key data, a time-consuming process which also increases the risk of data entry errors.
The 5x5x5 form assesses the risk to which a covert human intelligence source (CHIS) is to be exposed and the risk of using intelligence gained from a CHIS, therefore protecting the individual or the police operation to which the information relates.
The information retrieved is evaluated and rated by the reliability of the source, the quality of the information and the handling code or way in which the material should be disseminated. The form also starts an audit trail and ensures consistency between forces so intelligence can be shared more easily.
The ‘industry exchange’ upgrade enables police services to manage intelligence sources at organisations, such as retailers, where criminal activity, suspicious behaviour and internal theft occur.
The new version offers integration with the Home Office mobile telephone lookup, so that police can quickly verify the telecoms service provider with which that number is associated, should the number have been ported to different service providers.
