2008 - 2011
ENLETS was founded in 2008 during the French Presidency and is a subgroup of the Law Enforcement Working Party (LEWP) reporting to the Standing Committee of Operational Coordination and Internal Security (COSI). The ambition was to establish a stronger connection between law enforcement agencies (LEAs) and innovative technologies.
2012 - 2013
ENLETS’s main goal is to operationally strengthen Law Enforcement (Police) with the use of modern technology and development by exchanging information, experience and knowledge on a practical communication level.

In 2012 new vigour was brought into the group by establishing a Core Group (CG) and CG leader to steer the network daily and by refreshing the vision and mission of ENLETS.
2014 - 2017
Since 2014 ENLETS has received direct grants from the European Commission’s DG Home. The first of these was in 2014 as the ‘ENLETS Disseminates Best Practices’.

The next grant was given in 2016 for a two-year project ‘ENLETS Security, Technology and Procurement’.
2018 – 2019
ENLETS started its third effort following a new grant. This time DG Home provided funding for the three years. The ENLETS Technology Programme (ETP) started.
2020 – 2021
The ETP continued but the COVID pandemic made activities challenging as the model for meetings was most often physical sessions.

The Polish Platform for Homeland Security was appointed as the designated Secretariat. The increased capacity and experience of PPHS allowed ENLETS to trigger an online model for regular meetings and renewed energy to counter the loss of momentum caused by the pandemic.
2022 – 2024
ENLETS entered a new funding phase. Through ENLETS 2.0, the network continued promoting best practices, identifying practitioners’ gaps and needs and defining recommendations for improved policing.
2025 – ...
The next iteration of the project – ENLETS 3.0 carries on the work of the following TIGs: C-UAS, Public Order, Operational Centers, and Green Policing. The action is funded until August 2026. One of the main goals is to commit to foster collaboration, innovation, and to align with EU security priorities.
