Cyber security and physical security grew up at different times and in different neighborhoods. In fact, long before digital transformation was even a concept, physical security had staked out its corporate territory and was on the job protecting the company’s people, buildings, and other assets. Then, as the business world grew increasingly more reliant on information technology, digital security started flexing its muscles on its own turf.
Public safety communication is vital to all local communities. At APCO 2021, Everbridge featured new products and advanced functionality of our Critical Event Management platform to showcase our ability to keep towns, cities, states, and other public agencies running, faster. Our partnership with RapidSOS and the corresponding showcase of Everbridge 911 Connect is one solution that organizations can use to better serve the public.

Every enterprise has a unique risk profile. This is based on a wide range of factors including geographic disposition, sector, the scope of security and resiliency plans, organizational size and structure, supply chain, and much more. Without the right customized tools tailored for your organization in place, it’s challenging to stay ahead of threats and disruptions to your people, places, operations, and digital systems.
