Cancom Security plans to roll out Axon Body 3 cameras to over
100 guards with plans to expand in 2021
TORONTO, Jan. 15, 2021 /CNW/ -- Axon (Nasdaq: AAXN),
the global leader in connected public safety technologies, and its
subsidiary Axon Public Safety Canada Inc., today announced that
Cancom Security Inc. joined the Axon network by purchasing Axon
Body 3 (AB3) cameras and licenses to the digital evidence
management solution, Axon Evidence.
With over 1,200 security guards nationally and 50+ years of
management experience within the private security and law
enforcement industry, Cancom is one of the first security companies
to start equipping security guards with body cameras in the
Ontario region with plans to add
more in 2021. Now, with Axon Evidence, the industry's only scalable
solution that allows agencies to share evidence, Cancom will be
able to quickly share data with frequent collaborators such as
prosecutors, public defenders, and law enforcement
agencies.
"Selecting Axon as our partner and rolling out the AB3 to our
frontline guards demonstrates our on-going commitment to further
advancing the private sectors position while aligning ourselves to
support our local police services with seamless support in evidence
retention, gathering and continuity," says Cancom's Founder and CEO
Ron Wells. "More specifically,
leveraging this emerging technology is a valuable training tool to
teach our security guards appropriate conflict resolution and
de-escalation techniques while holding them accountable to provide
a best in class service to our clients."
"We are excited to partner with Cancom as they lead the way with
an implementation of connected body cameras and innovative
technology for the private sector," says Vishal Dhir, Axon's Managing Director,
Canada & Latin America. "By taking full advantage of
the Axon network, Cancom is creating a seamless partnership between
private security and law enforcement for sharing evidence to ensure
transparency and continuity."
