Vismo will be attending the annual Global Security Exchange (GSX) exhibition, formerly the ASIS International Annual Seminar, for the eighth consecutive year in 2019. The exhibition is one of the world’s largest and most influential events within the security industry. This year, GSX will be hosted in Chicago, from the 8^th to the 12^th September 2019, and is expected to attract more than 22,000 attendees from over 100 countries.

What’s new for 2019?

Vismo is committed to constantly improving user security, and over the past year, has integrated the latest technology to provide enhancements to products and user experience.  The development of the Vismo Lone Worker application effectively and securely assists lone workers by helping to eliminate the risks of working alone and without constant communication.

The Vismo Lone Worker app encompasses a panic button, which when enabled, sends an instant alert to administration teams, notifying them of a user’s location. Vismo also makes workforce management easier, due to the timed check-in and check-out function. Definitions of check-ins can be tailored to individual employees or job roles by administrators. Employees can choose the relevant action, along with an optional time frame to complete the task at hand. This information is sent to the secure Vismo Portal confirming the user’s location and relevant check-in action. Should the time frame expire, or not been deactivated, an alert is automatically sent to the administration teams. This allows administration team to monitor and aid employees, if required, ensuing the safety of lone workers within their workforce.

ASIS Accolade Security Best Winner 2016 and 2017

In previous years, Vismo has achieved great success at the ASIS International Security Conference & Exhibition after winning the Security’s Best Award for two years running in 2016 and 2017. The award acknowledges and celebrates the industry’s most innovative new technologies, products, services and solutions.

In 2016 the VismoAlert achieved the award, due to the covert nature of the panic button. Fundamental to a user’s safety in a crisis situation, users can press the button on their device, or, if there is no time to unlock their device, the button can be worn on the wrist, belt and as a pendant. The Bluetooth technology connects the Vismo-Alert to a user’s smartphone in order to send a panic alert with a GPS location remotely to the secure Portal. This informs security teams of the event, allowing for a faster, more covert and safer response.

Following the success in 2016, Vismo won the ASIS Accolade Award in 2017, with VismoStream. VismoStream enables users to send immediate encrypted transmissions of live video and audio from their smartphone to the secure Vismo Portal. This ensures the administration teams can evaluate the nature of the situation in order to respond accordingly.
