Product Profile
Interoperable Communication Doesn’t Have to be Hard
Secure Interoperable Communication with Agencies in Your Area – with Complete Control and No Added CostAtHoc Connect empowers you to create a secure permission-
based network, enabling interoperable crisis communication.
You can discover and invite other organizations to be part of
your network and accept invitations to join the networks of
others. You choose who receives your messages and alerts,
whose notifications you receive and how you want to further
share this information. As the emergency manager, you gain
situational awareness and control the forwarding of messages
across your own organization. You have full end-to-end control
of your communication.
Share Critical Information with Greater EaseNo longer do you have to find contact information that may
be out of date, dial a phone and get a busy signal or send a
broadcast message that you don’t know was heard. Now you
can push information to your selected networked organizations
with a single click, while information from your networked
organizations is instantly pushed to you.
You don’t need to spend time during or after an event recording
notes to comply with regulations. AtHoc Connect archives the
communication streams for you, so you can focus on your
mission, not paperwork.
The benefits of real-time sharing:
• Gain situational awareness• Speed response times• Sharpen decision-making• Coordinate interagency
responses
Join the Leaders in Crisis Communication
AtHoc helps safeguard millions of people and thousands of organizations, including leading corporations, healthcare
institutions and the vast majority of US military and federal agencies – from TSA and CBP to CDC and FDA. A key part of
AtHoc’s comprehensive protection: true interoperability, which empowers the connected community to more effectively
manage crisis events.
AtHoc Connect is a secure network that enables
interoperability between federal government, military,
state, and commercial organizations to ensure real-time
information sharing and coordination when it matters
most.
When an emergency strikes, responders need to communicate
with other agencies seamlessly, without the need of any special
equipment or expensive technology. While communication is
reliable inside most organizations, interoperable communication
is not – and that makes response efforts hard to coordinate.
Responses to events as varied as the LAX shootings
and Hurricane Sandy were delayed due to an inability to
communicate between organizations.
The need for interoperability is critical and required for many
agencies. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the
Department of Defense (DoD), legislative bodies and many
state and local organizations recognize the importance of
interoperable communication. Legislation has been introduced
to help create agency-wide standards, including the DHS
Interoperable Communications Act, H.R. 615, and H.R. 2206,
the State Wide Interoperable Communications Enhancement
Act. And now, AtHoc is contributing to seamless interoperable
communication with AtHoc Connect.
