esponse capability substantially and was recently<br />

reviewed and lauded by Maj. Gen. Jack Briggs, currently<br />

the Director <strong>of</strong> Operations for Headquarters U.S Northern<br />

Command, Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado. The<br />

implementation <strong>of</strong> the Desktop Alert MNS enables interagency<br />

communication during an emergent domestic<br />

event between the following US 1st in line 1st Responders:<br />

• FEMA HQ- ALL LOCATIONS NATIONWIDE (58K personnel)<br />

• ARMY AND AIR NATIONAL GUARD NATIONWIDE<br />

(500+K personnel)<br />

• NORTHERM COMMAND / NORAD (25K personnel)<br />

• U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) (10k<br />

Personnel)<br />

• U.S. Army Special Operations Command at Fort Bragg<br />

• AFDW Pentagon (confidential)<br />

• 200+ Army and Air Force locations worldwide<br />

DTA is currently the second largest provider to DoD<br />

and continue to build market share year by year. The<br />

unification <strong>of</strong> alerting between these agencies provides<br />

formidable actionable intelligence during emergent<br />

homeland events. The nation’s most top tier 1st agency<br />

responders are all owners <strong>of</strong> the DTA MNS. NO other<br />

vendor can boast these credentials; especially with these<br />

numerous ‘key’ nation leading 1st inline 1st responder<br />

defense agencies as it relates to not only border security;<br />

but all other security concerns to the nation. While<br />

other vendors may claim more seat licenses within DoD;<br />

only Desktop Alert has unified the nation’s most critical<br />

security agencies with the Military and DHS with one<br />

de-facto system. Desktop Alert is far and away the leading<br />

MNS in use by the <strong>Homeland</strong>s Most Crucial Defense<br />

Agencies! The improved ability to attain actionable<br />

intelligence across all <strong>of</strong> these agencies in less than one<br />

minute during an emergent event provides immense<br />

dividends to the safety and protection <strong>of</strong> the homeland.<br />
