2021 Annual Report

Technology Updates

The following technology was implemented by FWPD in 2021.

Everbridge Notification System Critical event mass messaging system that enables FWPD to connect and inform the entire department in an emergency. With this system, a user can facilitate two - way communication and mobilize a response team. Watch Systems Sex offender software that helps ensure compliance and increases efficiency while protecting the public with accurate, timely, and complete information. The offender ’ s record is uniquely associated with an agency based on an address. As offenders move outside of the agency area, ownership of that record is transferred to the new agency. Haystax Cyber Threat Mitigation Software This product provides a proactive instead of reactive approach to detect cyber threats. Haystax applies its Cyber Risk Analysis tool to rapidly assess and prioritize information security assets. Once the assessment has been completed, Haystax provides the risk profiles of the systems and helps identify gaps, optimally allocates resources, and provides a cybersecurity strategy. OWL Solstice Pod Wireless Video Conferencing This system is similar to Zoom or Microsoft Teams. This technology uses a 360° rotating camera equipped with microphone and speaker and focuses on who is speaking in the room at a certain moment, allowing for a full round - table experience in a virtual format.

Thank you Technology Services for your tremendous work that went past normal working hours to make sure FWPD ’ s technology needs were met. It is your commitment, creativity, and high standards that help this department thrive!
