Police Departments and Public Safety

Like you protect the public, we protect your data and information. 

Protect Sensitive Information While Sticking to Your Budget 

The sole mission of a police department is to keep the public safe. If they fail at this mission, then trust erodes to the point where leaders become accountable for the wrong reasons, quickly. 

Part of that mission involves protecting sensitive data such as personal information, digital evidence, and body-worn camera footage. And for officers to do their best, your operations—relying on information technology—must be as efficient and secure as possible. Yet, many police departments still rely on legacy IT systems that may be outdated and lack modern security features. 

When you have the right technology infrastructure, systems secure from cyberattacks, and IT support ready to respond 24/7, then public safety and trust gets an extra boost by: 

  • Eliminating technology fires that impede and frustrate your officers 
  • Protecting sensitive and confidential information to comply with regulations and ensure the highest data integrity 
  • Staying within a tight budget using right-sized solutions that scale with the growth of your department 

VC3 has spent the last 30 years making IT personal, making IT easy, and getting IT right.

A solidified technology foundation supported by cybersecurity best practices ensures you enhance public safety, protect sensitive data, and increase operational efficiency.
