In a world driven by information, organisations must handle sensitive documents with utmost care. Policing involves vast volumes of sensitive data - from Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and financial records to medical files and legal documents - and that volume is growing daily. Safeguarding this information is both a legal obligation and essential to public trust and effective policing.
NEC Redact uses advanced AI and machine learning to detect and remove sensitive information from digital files - quickly, consistently, and securely. Designed with public sector and law enforcement workflows in mind, it accelerates your ability to release information while supporting compliance and operational consistency.
From police evidence files to government records, NEC helps you meet your obligations under privacy and data protection laws, without the resource burden that traditionally comes with redaction.
