Abstract

In today's world, the escalating global insecurity poses significant challenges for both developed and undeveloped countries. The high crime rates and shortcomings in reporting crimes are pressing issues, emphasizing just how crucial it is to ensure the safety of citizens. While law enforcement agencies play a vital role, relying solely on them is insufficient. Embracing modern technology and fostering active citizen participation are essential to address these concerns effectively. This research adopts an agile methodology to tackle the above concerns. The result of this approach is the development of a user-friendly mobile application that leverages cutting-edge technology. The primary objective of this application is to effectively map incidents of crime and provide real-time alerts, thereby significantly enhancing citizen security. With this, users are empowered to report criminal incidents directly from their smartphones, eliminating the need to physically approach law enforcement authorities.
