BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 22, 2018--
Everbridge,
Inc. (NASDAQ:EVBG), the global leader in critical event management
and enterprise safety software applications to help keep people safe and
businesses running, today announced that Safety
Connection™ has been named the winner of the 2018
Campus Safety BEST Awards in the Incident Management & Response,
Communications Products category. The awards program recognizes
superlative security, law enforcement, emergency management and safety
solutions for K-12 institutions, universities and healthcare
organizations.
"Campus Safety magazine takes pride in focusing on content that helps
protection professionals in the healthcare and education markets keep
their students, teachers, patients, visitors and campuses safe and
secure," said Robin Hattersley Gray, executive editor of Campus Safety.
All entries were evaluated on aspects such as innovation, functionality
and benefits to the installer, and were judged by a panel of industry
leaders and the editors of Campus Safety magazine.
Part of the Everbridge
Critical Event Management™ platform, Safety Connection has been
widely leveraged by global organizations including universities,
hospitals, high tech businesses and pharmaceutical companies across
their campus environments, as well as to keep mobile and traveling
employees, students and staff safe and informed during critical events
and business disruptions.
“When protecting distributed student and employee populations across
large, multi-building campuses, traditional approaches to physical
security alone cannot keep people safe,” said Annie Asrari, director of
product management for Safety Connection at Everbridge. “It is an honor
to have Safety Connection recognized as a premier duty of care and
critical event management solution for businesses, airports, hospitals
and colleges, helping to protect traveling employees, pinpointing the
actual location of people on campuses amid an active shooter episode,
systematically checking on the safety of field workers and security
guards, and expanding the geographies in which companies feel safe to
operate.”
Everbridge Safety Connection combines automated workflow processes with
dynamically-updated location data down to the airport, street, building,
floor or conference room level which can be aggregated from multiple
sources including wired and wireless network access points, building
access control and badging systems (such as magnetic card readers or
badges for building entry), and travel information including corporate
travel management and office hoteling systems.
