This whitepaper explores how IoT sensors powerfully expand the capabilities of networked crisis communication solutions. It also discusses typical scenarios for incorporating IoT sensor data within emergency preparedness scenarios. Finally, it demonstrates why AtHoc is particularly well suited for using IoT data to deliver faster, more accurate situational awareness in an intuitive manner, without inundating employees with excess data or forcing emergency management staff to become data scientists.
This guidebook enhances FEMA’s approach with clear direction on how to turn a THIRAbased approach into a practical, useful model for improving emergency preparedness and response. It includes an overview of the emergency management and business continuity basics, as viewed by AtHoc experts. It also explores what Emergency Management/Business Continuity (EM/BC) principles mean in the “real world,” and how organizations can best apply those principles to develop fully engaged emergency preparedness and response programs. Finally, it illustrates the advantages of outside resources, including advanced software solutions, to accelerate successful emergency management implementations.

Like all law enforcement agencies, the Suffolk County Police Department needed to provide its field officers – intelligence officers in particular – with quick, seamless access to its central database through a VPN connection. For such officers, the ability to quickly obtain information on a suspect or developing situation can be the difference between a successful arrest and a failed one, or even between life and death. Therein lay the problem: in order to comply with strict IT security regulations, any device that connects to a police database must use two-factor authentication; a username and password simply aren’t enough.
