Abstract
The indices of citizen insecurity have been increasing in Colombia in recent years after the signing of the peace agreement. Many of the demobilized guerrilla members have gone to the streets of the country to seek a new direction or occupation and unfortunately have fallen into crime, increasing delinquency levels of crimes such as robbery, extortion, rape, micro-trafficking and personal injury. Added to this, the increase of the migrant population from the neighboring country Venezuela, in conditions of displacement have forced that part of this population with limited employment opportunities to take refuge in crime as it has become their only form of survival. Given this problem, it has become interesting to analyze through this investigation, the behavior of these crimes in the last years and to propose a technological solution that allows detecting the geological sectors and crime type that contribute the most to the social problem. In this way, offer alternatives for the protection of citizens using a mobile application that allows them to face the situation by making them part of the solution.
