BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

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 with recent customer deployments its solutions are now used by all 25 of the busiest airports in North America to manage threat assessment, incident response and resolution during critical events and security-related incidents impacting airport operations and safety.

In addition to airports, Everbridge’s products are used by some of the largest airlines in the world, the busiest seaports and transit authorities, the largest cruise lines, as well as the largest railroads in the United States, to improve collaboration during serious situations, such as severe weather episodes or active shooter incidents. The Everbridge platform makes it easy to plan for and manage incident communications and responses, following standard operating procedures and response protocols to help locate those at risk, determine who is safe – and ensure that the correct information is received by all personnel involved for the duration of the critical event. The platform is also used to ensure compliance with industry regulations and enable effective after-action reporting and analysis.

“Our experience with the world’s leading airports, transportation hubs and critical infrastructure helps ensure that customers can take advantage of best practices when it comes to managing critical events and emergency responses,” said Jaime Ellertson, CEO of Everbridge. “When a critical event occurs, time is of the essence and reliability must be assured. Travelers, local officials, law enforcement and first responders all need information and instructions as quickly as possible so the proper actions can be taken to keep people safe and resolve the situation.”
