Guardian – UK Police get quicker stolen mobile phone check

The Guardian News paper has reported that Police officers have been given a faster method of checking whether a mobile phone has been stolen, with a new link between the National Mobile PropertyRegister (NMPR) and the Police National Computer (PNC).

The National Policing Improvement Agency (NPIA) has integrated the NMPR into the PNC. This will make it possible for officers on the beat to access the NMPR directly through their handheld devices.

Detective chief superintendent Mick McNally of the Metropolitan Police Territorial Policing Command said:

For the first time frontline officers can now obtain instantaneous results of searches on suspected stolen mobile phones.

The figures of 50,000 plus stolen phones a year being located and identified throughout the UK will further increase with this new Police National Computer facility. It sends a clear message to phone thieves that police and partners can identify stolen mobile phones in the hands of the thief or another individual.

The NPIA developed the integration with the help of Recipero the providers of the NMPR and Immobilise services which specialise in online compliance and due diligence software.

Recipero awarded Secure Communities Network accreditation by the NPIA

1 Comment

Recipero is delighted to announce it has been awarded Secure Communities Network accreditation by the National Police Improvement Authority.

This accreditation demonstrates that Recipero’s NMPR application and its connection to PNC meets the rigorous security standards required of Secure Communities Network members. Accreditation has been achieved after months of auditing and testing of Recipero’s systems by independent security advisors appointed by the NPIA. This connection also enables a secure email path to recipero.scn.gov.uk through which Police and Government agencies may exchange classified information with Recipero.

Adrian Portlock CEO of Recipero said:

“this is a major milestone for Recipero and shows our commitment to the security and integrity of our services. I think it is fair to say that this sort of Accreditation is normally only achieved by the larger organisations in this market so as a niche provider we are very proud of this achievement.”
