Public Sector Security

SECURING PUBLIC
SPACES & PEOPLE

Anti-social behaviour, lone-worker risk, and duty-of-care failures cost councils and public bodies every day. Stop reacting and start protecting.

The Context

Public spaces face threats every single day.

Anti-social behaviour on the rise

Over 1.7 million ASB incidents were recorded by police in England and Wales in 2022, with councils and public bodies bearing the frontline burden.

Lone-worker safety under scrutiny

Council wardens, park rangers, and outreach officers are routinely exposed to verbal and physical abuse with no backup, no body-cam, and no digital incident record.

Budget cuts creating dangerous gaps

Reduced headcounts mean the same locations carry the same risk profile with fewer resources. Permanent contracts aren't viable, but the obligation to protect remains.

Duty of care and compliance obligations

Local authorities must demonstrate reasonable steps to protect staff and the public. Undocumented responses to incidents create serious legal and reputational exposure.

The Problem

Why traditional approaches leave gaps.

Reactive patrols, paper-based incident logs, and permanent staffing contracts were designed for a different era. They can't keep up with modern public space risks.

Reactive Patrols Miss the Pattern

Officers respond after the incident. Without predictive intelligence, the same hotspots are hit repeatedly because no one has joined the dots across the data.

Lone Workers Left Without Backup

Wardens and public-facing staff often operate alone with no body-worn camera, no panic response, and no digital record. A single incident without evidence becomes a legal liability.

Permanent Contracts, Flexible Problems

Risk isn't constant, but budgets are locked into permanent headcounts. Councils pay for cover on quiet days and are under-resourced on market days, events, and school holidays.

The Solution

Security that adapts like an immune system.

AI Loss Prevention

AI Public Space Monitoring

AI CCTV monitors parks, high streets, civic buildings, and community hubs, flagging aggressive behaviour and crowd build-ups before situations escalate.

Security Officer

SIA Officers On Demand

Deploy licensed SIA officers only when risk is heightened: market days, community events, and high-footfall periods. No permanent contract required.

Less Admin

Digital Incident Logging

AI Voice-to-Text incident logging for public-facing staff and wardens. Every encounter is time-stamped and produces audit-ready evidence for councils, police, and legal reviews.

Dashboard stats

Public Space Risk Intelligence

BI Dashboard. See exactly when and where incidents peak across your borough, estate, or site. Prioritise resources and make evidence-based budget decisions.

Repeat Offender Alerts

Compliance-Ready Evidence Packs

Automated incident and compliance reports generated after every deployment. Built-in evidence trails ready for council audits, police liaison, and freedom of information requests.

In Practice

Outcomes that matter.

  • Demand-Led Officer Deployment

    Officers deployed only when and where risk is elevated: market days, school half-terms, public consultations, and community events.

  • Incident Pattern Intelligence

    Recurring hotspots, times, and trigger patterns flagged automatically across your area, so councils prevent repeat incidents rather than just responding to them.

  • Audit-Ready Compliance Records

    Time-stamped, tagged incident reports generated automatically, handed to police, legal teams, or oversight bodies with zero admin overhead.
