U.S. Air Force Procures Desktop Alert Enterprise Server For Mass Notification Usage At Peterson Air Force Space Command Center And McGuire Air Force Base


Desktop Alerts publishes mission-critical interactive alerts to thousands of personnel for real world scenarios, emergencies and urgent message instruction.

For Immediate Release
CHATHAM, N.J./EWORLDWIRE/Sep. 28, 2006 --- Desktop Alert, Inc. today announced the U.S. Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) Center in Peterson, Colorado has selected and purchased Desktop Alert Enterprise Server for Mass Notification to critical personnel. The Desktop Alert Enterprise Edition Server licenses purchased will guarantee alerts are served to thousands of personnel and machines with critical content delivery to desktops in less then one minute in most scenarios. Desktop Alert is built on the Microsoft .Net Platform.

Desktop Alert Inc. has also been selected by McGuire U.S. Air Force Base in New Jersey for a base-wide installation serving alerts to upwards of 10,000 computers on the network.

"Desktop Alert has performed superbly for McGuire base-wide, and the team at Desktop Alert is to be commended for a superb product and an even better support staff. The system was approved as secure and has bolstered critical communications at the base," said Carlton Powell R SrA 305 CS/SCBNO, McGuire Air Force Base.

The Desktop Alert Mass Notification offerings include the ability to publish alerts to thousands of devices on the network for alerting desktops, laptops and mobile devices. The Desktop Alert platform architecture provides for alert publication over an internet protocol (IP) created on the network. Desktop Alerts are sent over the network using standard SOAP/XML packets over port 80. An example protocol might be http://desktopalert.basename.af.mil.

Alerts are created using the web-based Desktop Alert administration interface. The interface employs an embedded html editor which enables the publisher of the alert to create alerts, and to preview and publish using rich text media if desired. External applications easily share data and commands with the Desktop Alert Platform Architecture, via an easy to a use web-services application programming interface (API).

Templates may be created using the Desktop Alert administration interface. Alert format and content can be created and saved as a template for rapid future usage. Templates can be quickly employed for publication automatically based on predefined scenarios or manually by any authorized alert publisher resulting in rapid alert publication.

Desktop Alerts web-based management system provides three levels of access to the alert interface that include administrator, moderator and end-user. These accounts are created automatically based on the existing organizational unit (OU) structure of the Active Directory.

The Desktop Alert client application is easily deployed using standard software advertisements for silent installations to all computers (SMS). All client software has built-in Windows client authentication. The Desktop Alert client continually polls the network database for alerts on a interval as low as every 30 seconds. Administrators can push the Desktop Alert client installation to a computer(s) or an un-installation to any computer(s). However, unless requested, end-users cannot uninstall the alert software. Desktop Alert provides all of the alert application source code to each base. Desktop Alert's client software also includes automatic version upgrade if new features and modifications are added to the client in the future.
