Milwaukee, Wis., Dec. 14, 2020 — American Signal Corporation’s campus alert solution was recently awarded silver in the best mass notification system category of American Security Today’s annual ASTORS Homeland Security Awards.
The ASTORS Awards is the preeminent U.S. Homeland Security awards program that highlights cutting-edge and forward-thinking security solutions. ASC has previously won ASTORS awards in 2017, 2018 and 2019.
“We are once again honored to have received an ASTORS award,” said ASC Executive Vice President Richard Roe. “We work tirelessly to bring solutions to the market that are forward thinking and cutting edge — all in an effort to protect and save lives.”
According to American Security Today, ASC’s Campus Alert System “combines the latest technology to keep individuals safe on health care, corporate and education campuses. Whether indoors or out, ASC’s Campus Alert System reaches individuals, notifying them of a variety of threats.”
In addition, the system is designed to alert individuals of any threat, including tornadoes, floods, chemical spills, active shooter and more.
ASC’s Campus Alert System includes:
- ASC Clarity: A voice and tone siren designed for exceptionally clear alerts and also lightweight and easy to install with no heavy equipment.
- ASC AWARE: A customizable desktop and network-connected notification technology that interrupts computer stations, laptops, smart boards, digital signs and more to alert individuals indoors.
- ASC Sentinel: A two-way system that alerts users on mobile devices, allowing authorities to reach individuals regardless of threat. ASC Sentinel also allows individuals to alert authorities to dangerous or suspicious activity.
“We know that not everyone receives emergency alerts the same way,” Roe said. “With that in mind, we’ve developed a layered approach to the ASC Campus Alert System, using available technology to have broad reach, ultimately keeping individuals safe.”
