Summary
Please find attached the Policing in a Digital World Programme Annual Report 2024, which provides an overview of the journey since the publication of the Cyber Strategy in 2020, documents the work over the last calendar year in terms of the various project and work streams and the planned deliverables for 2024/25, including the recently approved strategic response to fraud.
It also outlines our ethical approach to technology, which led to the creation of the Rights Based Pathway, designed to support decision making and to maintain public trust and confidence in the organisation in respect of IT adoption and use of technology.
The success of the Pathway has overseen the introduction of technologies including CAID FM, CAID Image Classifier and Cyacomb Examiner Tool, with a view to enhancing our response to tackling Online Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (OCSAE). The relevant performance and assurances in terms of their use/application will be incorporated into the current Digital Forensics Performance framework, with a focus on measuring how effective, efficient they are, in addition to assessing the impact on the wellbeing of our people.
