Often considered the “nerve center” of operations, a National Security Operations Center (NSOC) is a critical component of monitoring, detecting, and responding to security incidents and threats across an organization’s infrastructure. To best assist its global clients in ensuring business continuity, GardaWorld Security, one of the world’s largest privately owned integrated security and risk companies, opened a state-of-the-art NSOC in St. Louis, MO.
Intimately aware of what is required to run an NSOC effectively, GardaWorld set out to integrate intelligence from various sources, including man and machine. The security giant staffed it with expertly trained security specialists and implemented the critical event management platform defining the future of security operations—TopoONE by Crisis24 (TopoONE).
GardaWorld’s NSOC integrates security intelligence and analytics with technology tools to improve situational awareness and human response. This allows security professionals to predict, prepare for, prevent, and respond to risk more effectively. TopoONE integrates all systems under one single pane of glass, giving GardaWorld’s security specialists 360-degree visibility of any potential threat. Specialists within the NSOC use this intelligence to alert clients of any risks or disruptions that may affect their operations, like school lockdowns, civil unrest, power outages, and severe weather. TopoONE seamlessly merges threat intelligence, weather information, physical security systems, and human resource data to create a common operating picture. It also enables the NSOC to communicate with stakeholders using multiple platforms.
If your organization doesn’t have immediate awareness of threats to your people and assets and is unable to respond quickly in times of crisis, learn more about what TopoONE by Crisis24 can do to help you enhance resilience to various organizational threats. A demo with a TopoOne by Crisis24 expert is just one click away.
