About Day One

On day one, we explored cloud technology, reflected on what we've learned from a year when cybersecurity attacks against public-safety and justice agencies soared, and debated how new dispatch strategies can improve outcomes for citizens and law-enforcement officials alike. We broke down the silos of public-safety and justice and presented the case for how these two disparate segments can be viewed as a single, interconnected entity.
