Neo (French law enforcement agencies mobile terminals)

NEO is a project aimed to provide French police officers and gendarmes with mobile terminals with a secure broadband connection.

It is based on a version of Android developed by the national agency of the security of the information systems (ANSSI) with the support of the service for technologies and information systems of homeland security (ST[SI]²).

The project to create a modern tool for mobile police and gendarmerie forces began in 2014.

Its outcome will occur in 2017 with the distribution of the mobile devices throughout the national territory.

This makes it possible to secure communications and to keep track of the actions performed by each user.
