With the push of a button on the mobile phone, users benefit from real-time police assistance while in danger or in a situation that requires immediate assistance. Once the police receive the alert, along with information on the location, the subscriber ID, and the mobile IMEI number, they dispatch help via the nearest police control room vehicle.

UST Global's iSafe for police force won the award for Best Use of Mobile Technology at Elets Knowledge Exchange Awards 2015.

Sajan Pillai, chief executive officer, UST Global said, "We are honored to receive recognition for the Thiruvananthapuram City Police app. It reinforces our efforts to transform three billion lives around the world through digital technology, over the next 3-5 years. Increased mobility, improved Internet connectivity and the focus of the Indian government on digitization will further grow the pace of e-governance. We recently signed up with the Madhya Pradesh government for digitizing over 300 urban local bodies."
