Vayusphere offers Instant Response Capability to
Emergency Response and Law Enforcement Agencies
InstantResponse Uses Free Secure Instant Messaging
To Alert and Deploy Most Available Distributed Workers in
Emergency and Disaster Recovery Situations
Mountain View, CA, June 28, 2002 -- Vayusphere, Inc., the
leading provider of Instant Response (IR) software and solutions,
called on emergency response agencies today to strengthen
their ability to instantly respond to mission-critical events.
Vayusphere Instant Response Server (IRiS) enables agencies
to instantly and dynamically locate and alert the teams most
available to respond to critical events and enables the targeted
teams to reduce response time by investigating, communicating
and collaborating using secure instant messages from desktops,
PDAs, wireless phones or pagers. IRiS works by dynamically
tracking and updating the presence, availability, and location
of available response team members and by providing mechanisms
for capturing responses from distributed workers using very
few keystrokes. In a disaster, where traditional phone and
email services are disrupted or overloaded, Vayusphere Instant
Messaging (IM) can provide an alternative real-time communication
mechanism. The company is providing Vayusphere IM to emergency
response teams at no charge.
"From severely disrupted infrastructure to loss of human
life - the costs of delayed response in emergency situations
are tremendously high. Vayusphere IRiS enables rapid return
of impacted assets to service as well as instant, distributed
multi-agency communication in times of crisis, when such response
is needed most," said Pushpendra Mohta, founder and CEO
of Vayusphere. "We want to believe that our national
infrastructure is robust, but we also need to ensure that
our emergency response teams are able to respond even if traditional
infrastructure services are disrupted."
