Abstract—
The history of violence against women remains vague in scientific literature. This is in part due to the fact that many kinds of violence against women (specifically rape, sexual assault, and domestic violence) often go unreported or under-reported, often due to societal norms, taboos, stigma, and the sensitive nature of the subject[3]. It is widely recognized that even today, a lack of reliable and continuous data is an obstacle in having a clear picture of violence against women, so a historical picture of violence against women becomes even more difficult to capture. Although the history of violence against women is difficult to track, some claim that violence against women has been accepted, and even condoned and legally sanctioned throughout history. According to Worlds Women Organization[4] the crimes against women have increased beyond the thinking of common people. So we propose this paper for developing an Android application called B’Safe & B’Secure that ensures both safety and security for women. This app contains unique features such as if the user is in trouble and doesn’t have internet connection at that time the text message will be sent to the registered contacts with the user’s current location using SOS technique. This app can also be used in case of emergency, the user can trace the location and contacts of nearby hospitals
