Law Enforcement Penetration Testing
Secure Systems, Evidence, and Public Safety
84% of law enforcement agencies reported experiencing a cybersecurity issue, from ransomware and phishing to insider risks. These attacks don’t just compromise data; they cripple operations, jeopardize officer and community safety, and erode public trust.
Packetlabs partners with law enforcement cybersecurity teams to uncover vulnerabilities before adversaries do. Our penetration testing spans CAD systems, RMS, dispatch networks, mobile fleets, officer credentials, covert/undercover identities, and evidence repositories, and more. By validating controls against real-world attack methods, we help police organizations harden defenses, protect sensitive data, and ensure operational readiness in the face of evolving cyber threats.
With tailored penetration testing, we help law enforcement agencies:
1) Protect officer identities and sensitive department data across CAD, RMS, and evidence systems; 2) Safeguard digital evidence integrity to preserve chain-of-custody and judicial confidence; 3) Maintain operational continuity by preventing ransomware and malware disruptions; 4) Harden dispatch, body-worn camera systems and mobile fleets against targeted attacks; and 5) Meet global law enforcement compliance and security requirements, such as:
CJIS Security Policy PIPEDA/PHIPA, GDPR, SOC 2, NIST SP 800-115, ISO/IEC 27001, ITSG-33

Strengthen Mission-Critical Applications
Internal and public-facing applications like crime reporting portals, records management dashboards, and evidence submission sites are essential to community trust, and prime targets for attackers. Packetlabs’ Web Application Penetration Testing uncovers flaws such as authentication bypasses, parameter manipulation, and insecure role-based access controls before adversaries can exploit them.
The Impact: Secures sensitive police data and operations by ensuring the web apps relied on by officers and the public remain safe and resilient.
