In the public safety and security sector, rapid communication is important, but procedural compliance often carries even more weight. In the event of an incident, ranging from shoplifting to large-scale disturbances, multiple parties are immediately involved: police, law enforcement, security personnel, business owners, and citizens. Everyone operates under their own mandates and specific legal frameworks, such as the Wpg (Dutch Police Data Act) and GDPR. Databeamer provides the secure environment where these parties exchange information quickly, responsibly, and traceably, while fully ensuring legal compliance.
Communication in the public safety and security sector is complex enough. Databeamer brings everything you need during an incident or case building together into a single, clear environment. Uncomplicated and with the familiar simplicity of a modern app.
Effortless storage and sharing
Easily request, store, and share evidence, daily reports, and footage. The platform automatically handles access controls, encryption, and logging in the background. You work quickly, tactically, and without any worries about legal compliance.
Central group chats and posts
Align instantly with all involved chain partners or the operational team. Share updates, real-time situational awareness, and documents directly in the central chat or through operational posts. This way, everyone has the same current picture immediately.
Quick communication via DM
Need a brief, one-on-one consultation with a specific officer or law enforcement agent? Ask a colleague a question quickly via direct chat. It is just as easy and fast as WhatsApp, but fully GDPR and Wpg-compliant.
Incidents are rarely solved alone. Building a complete picture requires information from various sources. Databeamer bridges this gap: quickly, efficiently, and with full legal compliance.
Incident workspaces
Set up a dedicated, secure environment for each incident or investigation immediately. Each organization sees only what falls within its legal mandate.
Control at the source
The owner of the workspace determines who is granted access and what information is visible. This ensures control stays firmly in the hands of the organization managing the case file.
Secure requests from witnesses
Allow bystanders or external parties to upload footage or statements via a one-time link. No account is required, and the evidence lands directly and encrypted into the correct file.
Core coordination
Discuss operational details and follow-up actions directly within the secure environment. This prevents sensitive information from ending up in WhatsApp groups or unmanaged inboxes.
Safety and security data often falls under different regulatory regimes. Footage from a business owner is governed by GDPR, while police data is covered by the Dutch Police Data Act (Wpg). Databeamer bridges these differences fully automatically in the background.
Mandate-based access
Permissions are strictly configured per role and organization. For example, a business owner can submit footage without gaining insight into the rest of the police file.
Strict purpose limitation
Each workspace has a predefined primary objective. Participants document the specific purpose limitation under which they join. The system enforces that data is never used for other purposes.
Secure transfer of evidence
Large files like bodycam recordings or other high-resolution footage are transferred with direct encryption. Forget unsecure USB drives or consumer clouds; every file is logged immediately upon arrival.
In incident response, the integrity of evidence is non-negotiable. After all, a compromised chain of custody can instantly render a criminal case unusable in court.
Immutable audit log
Every action, from the initial upload to the final viewing, is recorded with a timestamp and identity. This log is digitally signed and completely tamper-proof.
Digital sealing
Every file receives a unique technical signature. This allows you to prove conclusively afterwards that the evidence has not been altered.
Automatic validation
Set strict requirements for inputs, such as format and metadata, in advance. Anything that does not comply is rejected immediately. This keeps your case file clean and viable for further prosecution.
No scattered data
Prevent crucial evidence from being left behind on personal drives or in inboxes. Everything is centralized and stored responsibly.
Handling an incident does not stop on the street. The collected data must withstand strict legal scrutiny for years to come.
Automated management
Close case files and let the system monitor statutory retention periods. Automatic deletion follows afterwards, meaning you have no further worries about compliance.
Audit-ready without extra work
Whether the audit comes from a regulatory authority or a legal defense team: the complete, chronological reconstruction is instantly ready for you.
Integration with your own systems
Databeamer does not replace your current systems, but acts as the secure exchange layer. Information is verified and transferred to your internal archive via our API and agents.
