        abstract = {In the present scenario, women’s safety is becoming a highly concerned and continuously challenging issue because of increasing harassment, stalking, abduction and other critical incidents. Existing safety applications mostly depend on mobile-based actions or manual intervention, which may not be feasible in stressful or emergency situations. In order to overcome these issues, a unified smart solution that operates through a web platform is required to ensure continuous monitoring, real-time alerting and evidence generation. SHEild is a smart, web-based women safety system developed using modern web technologies that enables the victim to instantly trigger an emergency mode by pressing the SOS button for more than three seconds. Once activated, the system captures the user’s geolocation, initiates automatic audio and video recording, activates a loud siren to gain public attention, and sends emergency notifications to emergency. The system also stores multimedia evidence securely in the database, enabling users to download them whenever required. By merging real-time tracking, multimedia capturing and instant alerting in a single web application, SHEild offers a highly effective and reliable assistance platform for women’s safety.},
