Situational Awareness
Understand the risk in the geographic context.
Visualize verified threats on an interactive map to understand what's happening around your people, facilities, travel routes, events, and areas of operation.
Security decisions are stronger when intelligence is viewed in context. Situational Awareness maps analyst-verified threats and incidents in real time, helping teams assess proximity, identify geographic patterns, and understand how events may impact their operations.
The Challenge
The location of a threat is often as important as the threat itself. Without geographic context, security teams can struggle to understand what is relevant to their organization and where action is needed.
-
Analysts spend valuable time reviewing individual alerts and manually determining whether incidents are near key locations, people, facilities, or planned events.
The risk of doing nothing.
Without situational awareness, organizations risk overlooking threats that are geographically relevant, delaying response and making decisions without a complete operational picture.
How It Works
Situational Awareness transforms intelligence into a geographic view of risk. Through mapping analyst-verified threats alongside your areas of interest, security teams can quickly understand what is happening nearby, identify patterns, and determine whether action is required.
