AI in law enforcement: careful, explainable and under oversight

AI that assesses risks, evaluates evidence or supports investigation touches fundamental rights and is high-risk with strict requirements. We support organisations in a careful, explainable and well-documented deployment.

Detail per situation

Risk assessment of persons

AI that assesses the risk of victimisation or reoffending requires strict safeguards against bias and arbitrariness. We assess and document that independently.

Evidence reliability and investigation

AI that evaluates evidence or supports investigation must be reliable and explainable. We make its behaviour and its limits transparent.

Frequently asked questions

Which uses are prohibited?

A number of uses, such as certain predictive profiling, are prohibited. We determine per use what is allowed and under which safeguards.

How do we ensure human oversight?

By making decisions reviewable and reversible and recording the human role. We set up that process and document it.
