Regional Information Sharing
Collaboration (RISC) Grant from DHS
   ARJIS awarded grants to develop wireless
    project
   THANKS DHS and NIJ!!
   Objective to provide critically needed
    information to field officers
    We‟ve come a long way!!!
   Many wireless vendors: AT&T, Verizon and
    Sprint
       Speed
       Coverage, reliability & uptime
       Cost and billing issues, customer service
   Lots of Hardware choices: tested usability,
    ergonomics, battery life, etc.
   User experiences; what works and what
    data is useful
   Greatly enhances officer safety and
    effectiveness

                            10
Meet NCIC & CAL-DOJ Security
Requirements
   Dedicated circuit between ARJIS data
    center and carrier
   Static IP assignment by carrier
   Global Query application encrypted end-to-
    end
   User logon via LDAP for secure
    authentication



                       11
    Lots of Success Stories…
   “We were on surveillance in a
    kidnapping case and were running
    plates around the house in question.
    We found the plate of the „bad guy‟.
    With his name and DMV registration
    information, we found the photo and
    were able to show it to the rest of the
    team. When the suspect came home,
    we were able to ID him quickly. He is
    in custody on $500,000 bail.”

        San Diego Sheriff Deputy
          (Sex Assault Felony Enforcement Team)
