A first method in an orchestrator apparatus (112), wherein the first method comprises to receive (204) a request for a geographic location of a sensor (104) for acquiring data, to request (206) the geographic location from an operator apparatus (102) that is configured to operate a core of a communication network (100), to receive (212) the geographic location from the operator apparatus (102), and to send (214) the geographic location;

• wherein the first method comprises to send (214) the geographic location to an Intelligent & Autonomous Security Service, IASS, apparatus (108) that is configured to detect an unsafe activity based on the data,
• wherein the first method comprises the orchestrator apparatus (112) interacting with the IASS apparatus (108) and the operator apparatus (102) to provide a life feed of the data from the sensor (104);
• wherein the first method comprises the orchestrator apparatus (112) interacting with the IASS apparatus (108) and the operator apparatus (102) to update a network (106) that comprises the sensor 104 or the networks (106) that comprise the sensor (104), to maintain the life feed in case the sensor (104) moves or the network(s) (106) change.

A second method, wherein the second method comprises, at an operator apparatus (102) that is configured to operate a core of a communication network (100), to receive (206) a request from an orchestrator apparatus (112) for a geographic location of a sensor (104) for acquiring data, to request (208) the geographic location from the sensor (104), to receive (210) the geographic location from the sensor (104), and to send (212) the geographic location to the orchestrator apparatus (112);

• wherein the second method comprises to operate a plurality of sensors (104) for acquiring data in a plurality of networks (106), to receive (206) an identification of the sensor (104), to select a network (106) that comprises the sensor (104) from the plurality of networks (106) depending on the identification, and to communicate with the sensor (104) in the selected network (106),
• wherein the second method comprises the operator apparatus (102) interacting with the orchestrator apparatus (112) and the IASS apparatus (108) to provide a life feed of the data from the sensor (104);
• wherein the second method comprises the operator apparatus (102) interacting with the orchestrator apparatus (112) and the IASS apparatus (108) to update the network(s) (106) that comprise the sensor (104) to maintain the life feed in case the sensor (104) moves or the network(s) (106) change.

A third method, wherein the third method comprises, by an Intelligent & Autonomous Security Service, IASS, apparatus (108), to receive (200) data from a sensor (104) for acquiring the data, to detect (202) an unsafe activity depending on the data, to send (204) a request for a geographic location of the sensor (104) to an orchestrator apparatus (112) that is configured to request the geographic location of the sensor (104) from an operator apparatus (102) that is configured to operate a core of a communication network (100), to receive (214) the geographic location from the orchestrator apparatus (112), and to send (220) information about the unsafe activity and the geographic location or to evaluate (216) the unsafe activity depending on the geographic location,.

• the third method comprises the IASS apparatus (108) interacting with the operator apparatus (102) and the orchestrator apparatus (112) to provide a life feed of the data from the sensor (104);
• the third method comprises the IASS apparatus (108) interacting with the operator apparatus (102) and the orchestrator apparatus (112) to update a network (106) that comprises the sensor 104 or the networks (106) that comprise the sensor (104) to maintain the life feed in case the sensor (104) moves or the network(s) (106) change.
