New Cloud-Based Public Safety Communications Software Tool Will Provide Interoperability Between Public Safety Departments

Authority RedHawk LT Allows Law Enforcement and Fire/EMS Departments to Communicate Car-to-Car, Car-to-Station, and Agency-to-Agency over Secure Servers

ENGLEWOOD, Ohio, Nov. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- With the recent ten-year anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center still fresh on their minds, Creative Microsystems, Inc. (CMI), based in Englewood, Ohio, is releasing its Authority RedHawk LT product to public safety agencies across the State of Ohio, and eventually, the nation.

One of the issues that came to light during the 9/11 attacks was the lack of interoperability between responding public safety agencies. According to Derick Amos, Product Manager for CMI's Authority Safety product line, "Authority RedHawk LT addresses this communication issue between public safety agencies by providing a low-cost (small annual administrative fee) tool that will allow departments to communicate with one another." This Car-to-Car, Car-to-Station, and Agency-to-Agency communication will provide the interoperability that is greatly needed, but often cost-prohibitive, particularly for smaller agencies.

Authority RedHawk LT is a subset of Authority RedHawk. It offers a text and VOIP internet phone option ONLY. This interoperability will allow Law Enforcement and Fire/EMS Departments to send text messages and to make VOIP phone calls through CMI's secured servers located at their Englewood headquarters.

Authority RedHawk (the full version) is an information and communications tool that greatly enhances officer safety and department interoperability. This safety-promoting application is a Web service that, in addition to text and VOIP internet phone options, allows officers and departments to run NCIC queries, thus giving the officer immediate feedback on the person or vehicle that they are engaged with.

For more information about Authority RedHawk LT or Authority RedHawk, please send an e-mail request to RedHawkLT@civicacmi.com.

CMI, a Civica Group company, is located in Englewood, Ohio, and has been providing cutting-edge software to municipal governments since 1979. CMI has over 25 years of experience working with law enforcement and Fire/EMS agencies.
