SUMMARY:ANZFSS WA Branch Event: Breaking Data Silos - The Power of Graph Analytics in Law Enforcement
DESCRIPTION:In 2023\, Western Australia Police Force launched IRIS\, a graph‑powered intelligence platform that has transformed how officers access\, connect\, and interpret information. Built on Neo4j and unifying more than a billion data points\, IRIS enables rapid exploration of relationships between people\, entities\, locations\, and events; revealing patterns traditional systems simply cannot. This presentation – originally delivered at ANZFSS 2025 and awarded “Best Presentation in Forensic Intelligence & Data Analytics” – will showcase how IRIS is positioning WA Police as a national leader in intelligence capability. This includes critical use cases such as monitoring high‑risk offenders\, identifying and locating priority persons of interest\, and accelerating a wide range of policing investigations. \nLauren Atwood began her career as an andrologist\, with a degree in biomedical science (forensic biology). She spent six years working for IVF Australia before returning to the forensic fold\, conducting research with NSW Police. After six years driving forensic innovation\, Lauren shifted into data analytics with WA Police\, where she now leads the Data Capability and Insights (DCI) Unit. The DCI Unit designs\, builds and manages IRIS\, the graph‑analytics intelligence platform powering investigations across Western Australia. Lauren has been an ANZFSS member for nine years\, serving five as Secretary of the NSW Branch committee. \nDate & Time: Tuesday 31 March 2026. Refreshments and networking from 5.30pm\, seminar commencing 6.00pm \nVenue: Exhibition Space\, Ground Floor Building 500\, Curtin University Bentley Campus
