Australia's criminal information reporting service Crime Stoppers has announced it will be implementing a new online reporting tool, extending to members of the public additional ways to report crimes. The organisation has appointed Citadel Group to build out its safety management platform, Keep Us Safe vResponder, specifically around the needs of Crime Stoppers and its network. Citadel's Keep Us Safe application is hosted on Microsoft Azure, which received accreditation in April for its "government-configured" clouds to be used for Australian government data classified up to protected level. Crime Stoppers gathers information supplied by the community to assist police agencies with solving and preventing crime. "In the last two years we've seen an increase in cybercrime and victim reporting from the general public," Crime Stoppers director Peter Price said previously.
