For more than a decade, Alertus Technologies has engineered innovative emergency alert systems for colleges and universities, K-12 schools, corporations, medical centers, military bases, and government organizations. The Alertus System has been implemented worldwide by more than 1,000 organizations in multiple industries for a number of emergency situations. These may include armed shooter incidents, bomb threats, weather related events, terrorist threats, chemical spills, or any number of emergency conditions.

We are committed to providing customizable, scalable, and affordable mass notification solutions because we know even a few seconds of warning can help save lives during an emergency. Jason Volk, founder and CEO of Alertus, was a student at the University of Maryland in 2001 when an F3 tornado tore through the campus. There was no warning and two students—sisters—were killed. The tornado caused dozens of injuries and millions in damages.

To help prevent another tragedy like this, Volk dedicated the rest of his academic, and then professional, career to creating a mass notification solution that can be implemented anywhere and activated quickly and effectively. Alertus was founded in 2002 and has focused its efforts on developing life-saving notification solutions ever since.

Some of our customers include Virginia Commonwealth University, Johns Hopkins Medical, and the U.S. House of Representatives, and many more.
