Abstract

Traditional approaches to policing use a reactive model in which officers respond to incident reports and crimes after they occur. By contrast, intelligence-led policing (ILP) favors a preventative approach to crime-fighting. It uses crime data, threat assessments, surveillance, known information about habitual offenders and potential crime victims, and other analytical techniques to try to anticipate where and when crimes will occur. Police can then take preemptive action, increasing their physical presence in areas where crimes are deemed likely to occur or seeking to neutralize the imminent threat posed by specific would-be criminals.The Three I's of Intelligence-Led Policing.Jerryrat [CC BY-SA 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0)] The Department of Homeland Security, created in response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, is responsible for public security.Antony-22 [CC BY-SA 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0)]
