Natural disasters, active assailants, political unrest, crime, and terrorism reflect the heightened need for coordinated preventive and response efforts as well as critical incident management. Location intelligence enhances your ability to protect employees, customers, organizational assets, and the public. Protecting critical infrastructure and special events demands planning, collaboration, and access to information. A geographic information system (GIS) unifies security teams, supports the early indication of risk, and aids rapid response and incident closure.
