In high-risk security environments, emergencies can unfold in seconds. Whether a guard encounters aggression, a medical emergency, or an unexpected threat, the difference between safety and danger often comes down to how fast help arrives.
That’s exactly why the Security Guard App includes a powerful, real-time Panic Alert feature — designed to deliver immediate support when it matters most.

With instant alert triggers, GPS-based location tracking, and supervisor notifications, the Panic Alert system ensures that no guard is ever left alone during a critical moment.

✅ What Is the Panic Alert Feature?

The Panic Alert is a one-tap emergency button built directly into the Security Guard App.
With a single tap, guards can send immediate distress signals to supervisors, site managers, or control room staff.

Each alert includes:

  • Live GPS location of the guard
  • Time-stamped emergency notification
  • Complete device and shift details
  • Instant push and dashboard alerts

This helps supervisors respond rapidly and dispatch backup to the exact location.
