ALBAY EMERGENCY RESPONSE AND REPORT TOOL (ALERRT)csandit
Resilient public alert and warning tools are essential to save lives and protect property during times of national, regional, and local emergencies. Nowadays, immediate emergency alerts became one of the priority in both national and local government. The Provincial Government of Albay is geared towards becoming the most liveable province of the Philippines, which means that it would be known for good education, good healthcare and good environment where people are healthy, happy, employed and lives to their full potential. To achieve this goal, disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation must be anchored well so as to move to its destination of shared socioeconomic advancement. Supporting this vision, this study focuses on the design and development of a mobile based Albay Emergency Reporting and Response Tool (ALERRT). It is a mobile based resilient form of emergency alert notification that aids the concerned citizens of any emergencies, accidents and concerns that require immediate response from the government sector concerned.

Disaster can be devastating to any jurisdiction. Vital information needs to get to the households within the jurisdiction regarding and leaders need to communicate to those responders in the field. My jurisdiction adoption of social media a means of communication not only with responders but with citizens within the community. Our emergency management agency is discovering that most members of the community are subscribers to radio networks such as “
XM Radio and Sirus Radio
,” so a decision was made to go with using television as secondary communication resources. The numerous smartphones that are used making it possible for emergency responders and citizens within the community to receive vital information in the form of mass texted, emergency response messaging, or through the use television application that downloaded from various news agencies partnered with the emergency management agency. Social media platform such as Twitter and Facebook Live can deliver prompt update information to citizens of potential disaster information or between first responder and leadership of current situation (Eski, Celikli, & Kiyan, 2014).
There are challenges that exist with any new technology. Some challenges experienced by my jurisdiction dealt with getting the emergency management leadership to commit to innovations in communication technology. The leadership concerned with possibility outages of the internet that may affect the use of social media platforms were slowed to approve the use. The offline use of these social media platform might run into trust issue because outsiders who recently moved into the community were hesitate accepting information received due to weak ties (Gultom, 2016).
The solution to combat challenges, especially with outsiders who moved into the community, were providing education using online education video using platforms such as
“Vimeo
” and “
YouTube.
” Newcomers to the community were also directed to the community website to download applications for receiving important required community events and potential disasters (Haddow, Bullock, & Coppola, 2014). The solution for getting the support of the emergency management leadership accomplished by having IT specialist conduct educational programs to provide beneficial information to leadership buy-in.

1. In a previous week's discussion, we touched on the whole community approach. This not only involves the public safety agencies focusing the emergency services and emergency management functions, but also the various members of the community. Now we are going to take a look at public/private partnerships. Discuss what this concept is, what is the importance of this type of partnership(s), and identify a public/private partnership and explain the relationship and the benefits. Also address any challenges with the public/private partnership you identified (if any).
2. Technology has become part of our everyday lives. No matter how much we might try and resist technology taking over, it is involved with everything we do from communications to banking to navigation to education. Take a step back and take a look at all the technology that is being used in public safety. There is the mobile data terminals in emergency vehicles, we can send text and video now to emergency dispatchers, our smartphones have become computers that fit into the palm of our hand, etc. With that, who would have thought that social media/social networking would become a useful technology in the field of public safety. Discuss how the public safety field has embraced social media, explain how social media is used and the benefits, also look at your own community and discuss how social media is used to benefit the public safety agencies and the community. In your post, touch on the risk and challenges of the use of social media in the field of public safety.

Social Media to Situational Awareness; Value in not so many wordsmwhite1ca
This document discusses whether social media can provide greater situational awareness for first responders during emergencies. It defines situational awareness as having a clear picture of relevant threat information, and social media as interactive online communication. The document explores factors both for and against social media's ability to create situational awareness. It argues that social media can magnify impacts during crises and that listening to social media posts can provide timely, location-specific information to help first responders and the public understand developing situations. However, social media also has limitations like message length and internet/notification requirements.

The document discusses the growing issue of social-driven vulnerability and cyber threats exploiting human and social factors. Key trends driving increased vulnerability are constant connectivity through mobile devices, widespread social media usage, and how digital natives approach technology. This environment allows hackers to leverage targets' personal information shared online to identify and attack vulnerabilities. A new defense strategy taking a 360-degree approach is needed, integrating social monitoring, technological protections, prevention measures, and organizational security implications.
Law Enforcement & Social Media: Enhancing Response, Communication, and Public...Corey Olszewski
Law enforcement agencies can benefit from using social media in three ways: 1) Enhancing emergency response by locating survivors, threats, and witnesses via social media posts; 2) Improving communication with the public during crises to issue alerts and combat rumors; and 3) Strengthening community relations through regular online engagement. To maximize these benefits, agencies should appoint social media officers, establish usage guidelines, and promote their social media presence before a disaster occurs. During incidents, posts can provide real-time situational updates. Afterward, social media facilitates investigations and reassures the public. However, policies must ensure urgent requests are directed to 911 rather than social platforms.
1) The document describes an Android app called 6'Apart that uses object detection and machine learning to analyze videos taken in crowded areas and determine if people are maintaining proper social distancing of 6 feet or more.
2) The app uses a pre-trained YOLOv3 model to detect objects and people in videos recorded by users. It then calculates the centroids of detected people and checks the distance between centroids to analyze social distancing compliance.
3) The goal is to help police and individuals determine whether an area is following social distancing guidelines as lockdowns are lifted during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Smartphones Have Privacy Risks
Smartphones, 2013

Bottom of Form
Around the turn of the century, the FBI [Federal Bureau of Investigation] was pursuing a case against a suspect—rumored to be Las Vegas strip-club tycoon Michael Galardi, though documents in the case are still sealed—when it hit upon a novel surveillance strategy.
The suspect owned a luxury car equipped with an OnStar-like system that allowed customers to "phone home" to the manufacturer for roadside assistance. The system included an eavesdropping mode designed to help the police recover the vehicle if it was stolen, but the FBI realized this same antitheft capability could also be used to spy on the vehicle's owner.
When the bureau asked the manufacturer for help, however, the firm (whose identity is still secret) objected. They said switching on the device's microphone would render its other functions—such as the ability to contact emergency personnel in case of an accident—inoperable. A federal appeals court sided with the company; ruling the company could not be compelled to transform its product into a surveillance device if doing so would interfere with a product's primary functionality.
The specifics of that 2003 ruling seem quaint today [in 2012]. The smartphones most of us now carry in our pockets can easily be turned into surveillance and tracking devices without impairing their primary functions. And that's not the only privacy risk created as we shift to a mobile, cloud-based computing world. The cloud services we use to synchronize data between our devices increase the risk of our private data falling prey to snooping by the government, by private hackers, or by the cloud service provider itself. And we're packing ever more private data onto our mobile devices, which can create big headaches if we leave a cell phone in a taxicab.
What to do about it? In this [viewpoint], we'll explore the new privacy threats being created as the world shifts to an increasingly mobile, multi-device computing paradigm. Luckily, there are steps both device makers and lawmakers can take to ...
Public safety in a multi media era facilitating incident management responseJack Brown
The document discusses facilitating incident management response through improved situational awareness using multimedia technologies. It describes how situational awareness originally referred to a pilot's tactical awareness but now means comprehending observations through additional context. It argues that public safety systems need to integrate data in real-time to provide responders with a shared operational picture. A geospatial visualization of integrated information sources could help facilitate rapid decision making during incidents.
The iReport app allows users to report pressing events, issues, or accidents happening in their city or neighborhood in real-time. Users can upload photos, videos, and details about incidents like car accidents, fires, water leaks, or social events. Sensors also monitor conditions and send data for analysis. Other users can view reports on a map, comment, and alert authorities or related people to resolve issues. The app is designed to promote community awareness and quick responses to improving public safety and quality of life.

The software turns mobile devices into tools for first responders by providing access to real-time information like 911 calls and building plans. Zco is proud to exhibit the capabilities of PolicePad and FireTab, and the Lowell Police Department will share their experience successfully using PolicePad in the field.
Zco integrated Columbitech's mobile VPN into their PolicePad and FireTab software to provide police officers and firefighters with secure access to public safety records from their mobile devices. This will allow the Lowell, MA police department to access records while in remote areas without dropped connections. The integrated VPN supports strong encryption and authentication standards required for criminal justice data. It creates a persistent connection between mobile devices and servers as users move between networks.

Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.

Zco’s public safety products renamed public eye
1. Zco’s Public Safety Products Renamed PublicEye
Zco Corporation’s public safety products, including PolicePad, FireTab, PolicePhone and FirePhone, now
come under a single, unified product name,
PublicEye™.
“The new name better describes the vision behind
our product line and eliminates brand
fragmentation,” according to Gary Mueller, Vice
President of Business Development for the public
safety products.
PublicEye is a real-time mobile intelligence platform
for police, fire and emergency medical services.
Using PublicEye, first responders can access critical
data for optimizing emergency response
operations. Some of that data has been bottled up
in back-end systems but until PublicEye could never
be accessed in time to help save property and lives.
Other data is now available for first responders from sources never accessible before. This includes
information from websites, live video and surveillance systems, and even social media.
Every first responder, using a secure link, uses their iPhone, iPad or Android device to monitor 911 calls
as they occur on a real-time map and in a list, and with one touch gets complete details. Other incidents
and objects, such as sex offenders’ residences, HazMat sites, condemned buildings, or other points of
interest, can be superimposed on the map. It even helps police, fire and EMS to interoperate with each
other within their own communities or with their counterparts in adjacent communities.
Along with the name change, PublicEye brings the general public into policing, firefighting and
emergency medical services like never before. At a house fire, for example, a neighbor calls 911 and
takes a photo (or video) and uploads it to her Twitter (or YouTube or Flickr) account. The Twitter icon
appears next to the 911 icon on the responders’ PublicEye device. First responders and chiefs see the
photo with one touch.
Public safety departments can initiate tweets and other social media postings to warn, inform and
educate the community. Road closings or travel restrictions can be communicated quickly to a wide
audience. Officers can take pictures of suspects right from surveillance video and send a group MMS to
other officers to be on the lookout. They can even watch live surveillance video from schools and other
public buildings.
When it comes to public safety, PublicEye gives police, fire and EMS departments the power to do more
with less.
