Hyderabad cops integrate app with transport services tool

The city police today integrated its Hawkeye application with a transport services solution used by Synchrony Financial to strengthen the safety of the company's employees and ensure security in the state capital.
Synchrony Financial uses MoveInSync, a transport security solution which provides GPS tracking and security alarms app for their transport service.
As a part of the initiative, the police and Synchrony Financial have integrated both the applications to enable police to get immediate alerts and ensure prompt action to safeguard employees in need of help, a release said.
'Hawkeye', a mobile phone application launched in December 2014, empower members of the public to improve their security and reach out to the police in the time of distress.

The move was part of its measures to become a citizen- friendly and responsive force.
