GSN 2014 Digital Yearbook of Homeland Security Awards Recipients Government Agency Awards U.S. Army Garrison (USAG) in Bavaria – 2014 Silver Winner Awards Category: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Most Notable Critical Infrastructure Protection Program Name of Nominated Product, Service, or Program: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Bavaria Interagency Deployment Reason this entry deserves to win: –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Founded in 1999, AtHoc pioneered interactive crisis communication. Today, the company protects millions of people around the world – including more than 75% of U.S. Military and Homeland Security personnel, as well as leading corporations and universities. The U.S. Army Garrison (USAG) in Bavaria provides protection to those in their community by utilizing AtHoc’s product. The USAG Bavaria strives to provide a quick, effective response to crisis in order to ensure the security of their infrastructure. They recognize that emergencies do not occur in isolation, and that efficient communication with the greater community is paramount in assuring the safety of the community in times of crisis. However, the Garrison had previously encountered many problems as it attempted to establish an effective way to communicate within a community of organizations that covers 180 miles. It lacked the efficiency to communicate between organizations, without having to alert external points of contact, in order to distribute alerts internally. In addition, USAG Bavaria was challenged with the prospect of maintaining an up-to-date list of inter-organizational contacts, gathering them manually, a time consuming task at the very least. USAG Bavaria uses AtHoc’s cross-agency communication system or “Connect” to connect its numerous organizations via cloud. With this system in place, the commander responsible for safety and security will now be able to invite 13 tenant commands and components (such as the DoD school system, Morale Welfare and Recreation facilities, NATO schools, USO), as well as off-site but contiguous affected organizations, to join a secure network of communication in which the tenants will “connect” with the host command. This allows them to communicate directly with all desired organizations and external contacts in times of crisis, without the timeconsuming task of relaying the alerts to key contacts in other organizations. Additionally, each organization has the ability to enter and manage their own personnel’s data. All of this allows USAGA Bavaria to communicate effectively and efficiently between their organizations, and ultimately, within their entire community. 84
