Current projects

MARIT-D

Maritime trafficking, illicit trade, law enforcement, racketeering, modus operandi, modus via

The MARIT-D project, a collaboration between Dutch, Belgian, French, Portuguese and Spanish authorities, has developed an intelligence-led, data-driven approach to tackle maritime trafficking. The project's findings, including a refined detection tool, will be shared across EU Member States via EUROPOL's Innovation Lab, facilitating further cross-border collaboration.

Innovatielandschap Oost-Brabant

Quantum, Robotica, Automotive, Innovation

This project provides a comprehensive analysis of the high-tech industry and innovative companies in East Brabant, Netherlands. It emphasizes on key sectors including robotics, quantum technology, and automotive, and examines their significance to law enforcement and various other industries.

MARIT-NL

Maritime trafficking, illicit trade, modus operandi

The MARIT-NL project, a collaboration between multiple organisations in the Netherlands, has developed an intelligence-led, data-driven approach to tackle maritime trafficking. This tool will be further developed, tested and piloted in the Dutch innovation environment. DISSS is aiding with funding opportunities, communication and dissemination and the realisation of a scientific network related to maritime trafficking.

Starlight

Tools, capabilities, AI, LEAs, criminal misuse

Law enforcement agencies' (LEAs) data-rich environments provide the opportunity to adopt artificial intelligence tools and capabilities that improve investigatory practices and limit the criminal misuse of AI. Through STARLIGHT, LEAs will collaboratively develop their autonomy and resilience in the use of AI for tackling major criminal threats.

TRANSCEND

Citizen participation, toolbox, fighting crime and terrorism

DISSS, together with the city of Mechelen, is organising a pilot workshop to test tools from the TRANSCEND toolbox with youngsters in the city of Mechelen. The goal of the toolbox is to help local and regional authorities to organise workshops or other types of events to involve citizens in increasing their own resilience against crime in general. DISSS is organising the pilot in Mechelen, on behalf of Efus.

Traffic Safety Improvement in Utrechtse Heuvelrug

Traffic, Mobility, Safety, Vulnerable Groups

The Municipality of Utrechtse Heuvelrug is making an ongoing effort to enhance traffic safety in the region. Comprehensive research has been conducted to address cut-through traffic and improve security for vulnerable road users in rural areas.

AHEAD

Foresight, Civil Security, Technological Challenges

The civil security transition into the 21st century has been accompanied by a technological boom and the emergence of technologies with seemingly infinite potential (AI, Big Data, virtual reality, 5G, IoT, etc.). Police forces and civil protection actors must anticipate these technological changes and turn the potential threats they raise into opportunities to ensure the safety of society.

ENACT

Security R&I, Innovation Uptake, Knowledge Network

ENACT aims to develop a Knowledge Network for Security R&I in the Fighting Crime and Terrorism (FCT) area, aiming to support EU-funded security R&I and boost the uptake of innovation. It brings together a unique consortium, including law enforcement agencies, universities, research centres, and industry organisations, to facilitate knowledge exchange, ensure the availability of a structured knowledge base, improve market visibility, and ensure sustainability beyond the project duration..
