Haystax Launches National School Safety Cloud

February 10, 2014

Integrated information management system provides secure 24/7 data access and dynamically monitors the school threat environment. McLean, VA – February 10, 2014 – Haystax Technology, Inc., is pleased to announce the launch of its National School Safety Cloud, an integrated portfolio of online software applications that enables school districts and their public safety partners nationwide to securely manage their school safety operations and data in the cloud. “In developing our National School Safety Cloud,” said Haystax Chief Executive Officer William B. Van Vleet, “we have applied our broad expertise in public safety risk, data analytics and visualization, and secure cloud collaboration to assist school safety officials with their critical mission: providing the nation’s 55 million students with a safe, tranquil environment in which to learn and develop.” The web-based and mobile apps in the National School Safety Cloud are accessible to all authorized users, providing a shared and continuously updated picture of the school security environment and seamless coordination during a crisis, as well as integrated software tools like custom safety assessment forms and field alerting apps. Anthony F. Beverina, President of Haystax’s Public Safety & Commercial Business, noted that school safety engages a wide cross-section of the community, from students and parents to teachers and superintendents, plus a range of public safety officials and government administrators, policymakers and legislators. “These diverse stakeholders are constantly striving to understand the broad threats and risks facing all schools in their areas of responsibility, as well as unique aspects of the security environment at each school. Our new School Safety Cloud enables them to do both — providing the information they need, when they need it.” From the smallest school districts to the largest states, authorized users of the School Safety Cloud can:

  • Catalog their school facilities, with detailed site descriptions, location data, contact information and more;
  • Upload vital documents like floor plans and emergency plans, plus photos of key personnel and facilities;
  • Conduct safety audits and assessments, which can be customized to match existing assessments mandated in many U.S. states, and can generate automated written reports on the threats and risks facing each facility;
  • Schedule and manage events such as school community activities and emergency drills;
  • Report and track incidents in and around schools using a variety of news sources and emergency dispatch feeds, plus alerts from a mobile reporting app;
  • Dynamically and continuously monitor school-related threat data from social media networks and other digital sources.
