Administración de seguridad ciudadana y uso de tecnología en una municipalidad distrital peruana

The study sought to associate the administration of citizen security and the use of technology in a district municipality in Peru to 2023. The research was basic descriptive, positivist paradigm, quantitative approach, non-experimental, cross-sectional and simple correlational. It operated on a population of 150 citizen security workers and 108 as a sample, all from a district municipality. The survey technique and two questionnaires were applied as instruments, validated and subjected to reliability tests. The results pointed to a low-level correspondence between the variables with maximum values of 70.3% maximum and 75% in total and average levels of 16.67% maximum and 25% in total, a possible associativity that was later verified with the Spearman's rho statistic (rS = 0.729**, Sig. =,000), which proved a positive and significant correlation, something that was also certified in the correlations of the first variable and each of the dimensions of the second. It is concluded that both variables run in the same direction with an interesting strength. The theoretical basis and antecedents had not previously proven this associative relationship but provide an important foundation for local governments in Peru and the region to integrate both concepts-practices -citizen security and use of technologies- to improve management and control of cities in order to minimize crime and delinquency within the framework of citizen security being a human right, a public good and a condition for sustainable development, among other things.
