Modernizing law enforcement: A technical deep dive into distributed case management systems

Saraiya, Shailin (2025) Modernizing law enforcement: A technical deep dive into distributed case management systems. International Journal of Science and Research Archive, 14 (1). pp. 1310-1316. ISSN 2582-8185

This article presents a comprehensive technical analysis of Distributed Case Management Systems (DCMS) in modern law enforcement operations. The article examines how these systems address the challenges of processing exponentially growing digital evidence, which has increased by 312% since 2019. Through implementation of microservices architecture and advanced caching strategies, DCMS demonstrates significant improvements in evidence processing efficiency, achieving 83% faster analysis times and improving accuracy rates from 67% to 94%. The article details the system's architectural components, including real-time collaboration frameworks processing 2.8 million queries per second and security implementations maintaining NIST 800-53 compliance. Performance metrics indicate a 79% increase in cross-jurisdictional case resolutions and 71% reduction in evidence verification times. The article also explores emerging technologies integration, including quantum-resistant encryption and blockchain-based evidence integrity systems processing 12.5 million transactions monthly.
