Security/Emergency Readiness (RED Alert)

1Call features many built-in tools that help you maintain system and information security.
Optional features, such as whether or not callers should hear a student’s phone number, allow
you to set up your 1Call system to meet your organization’s specific safety and security
requirements.

You can also streamline emergency service procedures when you use the 1Call Rapid
Emergency Deployment (RED) Alert Emergency Notification system to quickly notify
the appropriate campus personnel, as well as speeding the process of contacting the police
and fire departments. Small or large-scale notifications are sent automatically via pager,
e-mail, cellular phone, PDA, or home phone.

• Use RED Alert to quickly notify personnel during:


• Network outages


• Blackouts


• Threat situations


• Natural disasters


• Internal emergencies, such as a fire or explosion


• Special conditions and events


• Equipment or plant failures


• Building evacuations
