Police and Sheriff’s Depart­ments have a new hur­dle to leap and that is in meet­ing the new con­straints Khaled placed against their exist­ing evi­dence cap­ture and man­age­ment prac­tices

To make it pos­si­ble for Law Enforce­ment (LE) to pro­tect our cul­ture and to deal with the ris­ing costs of insur­ing that secu­rity Law Enforce­ment processes are turn­ing to both out­sourced or remotely oper­ated sur­veil­lance sys­tems which depend on vir­tu­al­iza­tion of inter­nal LE and many of the field-​​based LE Data Cap­ture Oper­a­tions which would ulti­mately lead to some form of pros­e­cu­tion and settlement-​​fine.

Tra­di­tional Evi­dence has been first-​​person in form

Tra­di­tion­ally in these mat­ters any cita­tions issued through those processes would gen­er­ally need to be issued by the Police Offi­cer or Sheriff’s Deputy who was oper­at­ing that sys­tem under the com­mis­sion of their office as a law enforce­ment offi­cer. Some States actu­ally have law lim­it­ing the issuance of cita­tions to requir­ing the office of a com­mis­sioned Law Enforce­ment Offi­cer to issue which com­pli­cates many sur­veil­lance and auto­mated traf­fic man­age­ment practices.

Certichron’s “Cer­e­monies in Soft­ware” allows for the vir­tu­al­iza­tion of Law Enforce­ment Functionality

Certichron’s Vir­tu­al­ized Law Enforce­ment Offi­cer, a Cer­e­mony in Soft­ware Prac­tice based on already-​​approved eNo­tary prac­tice addresses this require­ment fully mean­ing with Certichron’s sys­tem exist­ing Law Enforce­ment Agen­cies are ‘good-​​to-​​go’ to restart their traf­fic enforce­ment prac­tices immediately.

The use of the Notary statures ampli­fy­ing the Law Enforce­ment com­mis­sion cre­ates a new and pow­er­ful elec­tronic sign­ing resource with the inte­grated $15,000 bond all nota­rized sign­ings cre­ate. This sys­tem fully meets Cal­i­for­nia and other State require­ments since these states already rat­i­fied the spe­cific por­tions of the Notary Prac­tices Act’s as UCC mak­ing the Cer­tichron model already approved for roll­out across all 50 states.

In fact with proper imple­men­ta­tion of a new evidence-​​capture mind­set, many if not all exist­ing sys­tems can be brought into align­ment with the new con­trol require­ments to main­tain their admis­si­bil­ity into US and Cal­i­for­nia Courts.

The Vir­tu­al­ized LEO

The vir­tiual­ized LEO allows for Inten­tional Evi­dence from each stage of each process to be cre­ated under the com­mis­sion of the offi­cer attest­ing to the issuance of the cita­tions. The cap­ture of the data can be cer­ti­fied by adding a hash­ing time­stamp for each event. The report­ing or con­tain­ment receipt can be prop­erly acknowl­edged with a time­stamp request show­ing each com­po­nent move­ment of evi­dence con­tent, and when that con­tent is ephemeral in form this is the only way to prop­erly doc­u­ment con­trolled man­age­ment of that data.

With this sys­tem any exist­ing sys­tem can have trans­parency and the cer­ti­fy­ing process added to the process by the LEO sign­ing into the Ses­sion Man­ager and attest­ing that they are apply­ing their com­mis­sion as a LEO to that oper­at­ing ses­sion. The prac­tice also can be facil­i­tated against the Cam­era Oper­a­tions Mod­els today for any and all sys­tems (Red­Flex and Lock­heed, or ATS oper­ated in form). For all of these con­trol prac­tices the Cer­tichron DES infra­struc­ture allows the cre­ation and appli­ca­tion of the human com­mis­sion in a vir­tual sense
to these exist­ing systems.

The “Fed­eral Infor­ma­tion Sys­tems ‘Com­puter Audit­ing Man­ual ’” or “Yel­low Book” as it is known inside the GAO is the US Gov­ern­ment Account­ing Office’s stan­dard for audit­ing com­put­ers within the Exec­u­tive Branch of the US Government.

Com­puter Sys­tems within Fed­eral Agen­cies audited by the GAO are to imple­ment these stan­dards as a base­line for their own operations.
