The UAE authorities have interfered with several crimes and improved the country’s security using artificial intelligence to come up with a crime map that predicted problems before it happened. The highest government official explained how this system is used.

“Last year, we prevented more than 50 suicide cases,” Dr. Mohamed Al Kuwaiti, Head of Cybersecurity Department, found. “We have interfered with several murder crimes, drugs, and fraud.”

He spoke at the AI Alls conference, which began at Abu Dhabi on Tuesday. The MAP Crime Initiative is a cooperation between the UAE State Production and Cybersecurity Department.

“With algorithms based on crimes and global trends, (map) predicts crimes and gives us notifications and reports,” said Salm Ali Juma Al Zabab, an emergency leader, crisis and a natural disaster prosecutor’s office. “We work directly with the Cybersecurity Council, and we try to push as much as we can be ready, to reveal our thinking and the idea of new acts of crime.”

Keep up with a crime

Al -Zaabi added that one of the biggest obstacles to the government organization was lagging behind the ingenuity of criminals, and the crime map helps in this aspect.

“We must cooperate internally or abroad, with several organizations to predict crimes so we can be ready and understand new crime when it happens,” he said. “And we must support prosecutors ready, actively thinking to investigate such crimes. How can you explore something you do not know or are not ready? ”

However, Al Kuwaiti added that confidentiality and safety of information are extremely important for the country.

“This is our number one priority,” he added. “Many people who control, did or initiated something earlier. We conduct data and history analysis, and it gives a very good prevention in this perspective. We use our data in a very clear, specific, managed type of framework. “

He added that in many cases, cameras across the country are useful. “After the crime happens, we go and investigate,” he said. “But we want to prevent this. That’s why we use these models and machines AI to try and actually give us indicators of early warning. Then we get court orders or summons to focus on the specific indicator we saw.”

Al Kuwaiti also gave some information about cybersecurity in the country. “We have at least an average of more than 200,000 attacks every day,” he said. “This includes social engineering and phishing.”

“We use the next generation Operation Center, which is the AI-Empower Center, which allows you to automatically stop more than 90 percent of these attacks,” he said. “There are patterns and indicators of compromises. These attacks even have a “behavior” that you can detect early, which we call the early warning system. “
