RIPA compliancy

Otis Hanley, CEO of SafetyNet Security Group is delighted to announce that having recently completed all of the necessary criteria, we have now achieved RIPA compliancy.

RIPA is the law governing the use of covert techniques by public authorities. It requires that when public authorities, such as the police or government departments, need to use covert techniques to obtain private information about someone, they do it in a way that is necessary, proportionate, and compatible with human rights.

RIPA’s guidelines and codes apply to actions such as:

• intercepting communications, such as the content of telephone calls, emails or letters
• acquiring communications data: the ‘who, when and where’ of communications, such as a telephone billing or subscriber details
• conducting covert surveillance, either in private premises or vehicles (intrusive surveillance) or in public places (directed surveillance)
• the use of covert human intelligence sources, such as informants or undercover officers
• access to electronic data protected by encryption or passwords

RIPA applies to a wide-range of investigations in which private information might be obtained. Cases in which it applies include:

• terrorism
• crime
• public safety
• emergency services
