Everbridge’s Safety Connection Greatly Improves
Digital Streaming Company’s Ability to Locate and Communicate with
Employees During Critical Events
Everbridge, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVBG), a global software company that
provides critical event management and enterprise safety
applications to help keep people safe and businesses running, today
announced that Hulu, a premium streaming television destination,
has selected Everbridge’s Safety Connection™ solution to improve
their ability to locate and communicate with mobile, travelling and
remote employees during critical business incidents and
emergencies.
Traditional manual approaches to critical communications may be
insufficient in ensuring physical security and employee safety.
Crises occur quickly and without warning so deploying Everbridge
Safety Connection to keep track of employees’ locations, even when
they are traveling or moving between buildings and campuses, is a
critical component to ensuring global employee safety. The solution
aggregates geo-location data from multiple systems – wireless
network access points, travel itineraries, home and office location
records, and check-ins through its mobile application – to take a
multi-pronged approach to locating employees, responders,
contractors or visitors who are potentially at risk. Leveraging
this data, organizations can then target notifications via SMS
text, voice, mobile app, digital signage or desktop alerts.
“During a location-specific critical event, time is of the
essence so companies need to be able to quickly find and
communicate with their global employees,” said Jaime Ellertson, CEO
of Everbridge. “Everbridge’s Safety Connection solution dynamically
locates people who may be at risk, or can respond to an incident,
and automates targeted, relevant communications to keep people safe
and informed.”
