In the current climate of hijackings, robberies and unlawful syndicates, it is hard to imagine a world where crime is drastically reduced, or even wiped out completely.
For this, partnerships and collaboration between security companies, corporates, the community, and the police are key, and innovations in technology are making this possible. “AURA’s platform enables us to coordinate mass dispatch protocols to the scenes of crimes because of the technology installed in thousands of armed response vehicles. With multiple responders closing in on a crime scene within 5-6 minutes and positioned at the location’s exit routes, a situation can quickly be neutralised.
In his time at Uber, Khaole has come to appreciate the power of using technology to help improve safety on the platform – especially when it comes to empowering users with information that helps minimise risk.
