FAULT-TOLERANT RELIABILITY
Failure is never an option for government mass
notification and emergency alerting—the health
and safety of hundreds of thousands or even mil-
lions of citizens hang in the balance. ASC sys-
tems put reliability above all else, to guarantee
seamless functionality under the duress of any
adversity.
• CompuLert™ NEXGen command and control
platform architecture supports deployment in
HIGH-AVAILABILITY and FAULT-TOLERANT
information technology configurations. Ac-
cess to the system is possible from numerous
gateways, and is designed to function even if
partial outages occur.
• The communications infrastructures we de-
sign are in place protecting municipalities
around the world and CompuLert™ NEXGen
has been certified by Motorola® Solutions in
public safety radio systems.
BEST-IN-CLASS CYBER SECURITY
In an age of cyber-terrorism, data breaches and
sensitive information hacking, ASC is designing
notification systems that offer unmitigated pro-
tection against malicious attacks.
• All network connections use a secure SSL
connection to prevent snooping or “Man-In-
The-Middle” attacks. CompuLert™ NEXGen
is also capable of working with entirely iso-
lated network resources, with no dependence
on cloud resources or internet access, aside
from the optional NOAA feed.
• CompuLert™ NEXGen protocol messages
exchanged between the server and clients
are encrypted at application level. The appli-
cation uses the symmetric Advanced Encryp-
tion Standard (AES) for encrypting messages.
