The
TeraMessage Private Service
for Emergency Response
PUBLIC
PAGING TODAY
For one
reason or another, the PUBLIC paging companies’ reliability and coverage in
certain areas have tremendously decreased, forcing regional Emergency Services to
SERIOUSLY look for other alternatives.
Emergency Services
are now looking for a reliable, “smart” way to promptly deliver emergency messages.
The most immediate option is the use of Smartphones,
since we all are using them to send and receive personal text messages. The cellular
data and messaging infrastructure is already in place. People already carry their
own smartphone, which can be used to receive personal and mission critical
messages identified by different ringtones.
THE
CELLULAR NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE
Today, there
are millions of cellular phone users generating huge revenues for carriers like
Verizon, AT&T, ROGERS, etc. Carriers
compete in service price and in network reliability. They offer packages that include data plans to
access the Internet using the smartphone. In order to maintain the highest possible network reliability, carriers
spend millions of Dollars in maintaining their cellular towers, implementing backup
and redundant equipment. The data channels of the cellular networks are very reliable today.
PUBLIC
MESSAGING SERVICES
Today,
there are many PUBLIC hosting services using the data channel of the cellular network
offering to deliver text messages to smartphones.
Knowing that
prompt delivery of SMS messages and email is not guaranteed, Emergency Services
are tempted to try PUBLIC hosting services such as WhatsApp, Blackberry, Tigertext,
and many others. These PUBLIC hosted services are attractive because some are
free and others have low fees. However, their app is made for the public to
send and receive non-critical messages and to “have fun with friends”. Emergency Services must consider the following
critical issues if using PUBLIC hosted services:
Your
critical messages are stored in their servers and anyone can read them. You cannot delete them or retrieve them. You do not have access to a Log if you
want to check who sent messages to whom, the text of the messages and when they
were read. Message delivery time depends on their PUBLIC messaging traffic,
which could be messages to thousands of other users. Their app may secretly collect
the user’s geolocation because the cellular phone number was entered when subscribing.
THE
TERAMESSAGE PRIVATE SERVICE
The TeraMessage
PRIVATE Service is NOT a hosted service. TeraMessage becomes your PRIVATE
messaging service, only for your operations. You have complete custody of all
your messages. Messages travel encrypted
on the Internet and on Wi-Fi networks using AES-256 and TLS1.2. There is no
need to program the user’s cellular phone number or the email address. You
control who belongs to your TeraMessage PRIVATE Service. You control who can
send messages to whom. The Log can be accessed at any time. The Log provides a PRIVATE detailed message record
with the date and time of transmission, reception and when the message was actually
read. The sender automatically receives a notification when the recipient reads
the message. Operators can send and receive messages on their computer by using
a browser. The TeraMessage app works on Android and Apple devices. Optionally,
you can send pictures, documents, voice files and videos, which also travel
under encryption.
WHAT
REALLY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE?
The TeraMessage
app has been specially designed for PRIVATE corporate communication using our
25 years of experience in delivering messaging products and solutions. The
TeraMessage PRIVATE Service is in use by Government entities and
Hospitals.
I believe
100% in TeraMessage’s reliability because I have been using the TeraMessage app
on my smartphone for many years. The TeraMessage app tells me when I am out of cellular
range; if my phone switched from cellular to Wi-Fi or vice-versa; if I have
messages pending to be read; if I want to be alerted of new messages when the
phone is in mute, and many other powerful security features. The TeraMessage app is one of the most powerful
reasons to use the TeraMessage PRIVATE Service for emergency and critical
messaging.
The
TeraMessage PRIVATE Service uses the LTE/GSM/HSPA data channels available to
the TeraMessage app on the user’s phone. TeraMessage sends and receives information
when the phone is on Wi-Fi or on the cellular network. It is an impressive communications tool that
you can fully trust to send and receive critical messages.
I truly believe
that the TeraMessage PRIVATE Service is the future of emergency messaging communication.
