Fast, documented outreach

Send Urgent Messages with a Trail You Can Defend Later.

Turn emergency communication from policy text into a measurable operating process with drills, response metrics, and versioned records.

Share one communication readiness requirement and we will show how it connects to drill evidence and response-time reporting.

How It Works

From Notification Plans To Measurable Drill Results

Documented plans, drill execution, and exportable records connect end to end, so readiness is provable when reviewers ask.

01
Define notification chains
Document who gets notified, in what order, and which channels are expected to respond.
02
Run communication drills
Execute exercises and keep structured records of participation and acknowledgment timing.
03
Measure response performance
Track response-time and channel coverage trends to identify weak points early, including sub-5-minute acknowledgement targets for critical cohorts.
04
Version plans with approvals
Preserve change history as communication plans evolve across review cycles.
05
Export reviewer evidence
Share drill history and plan records through controlled reviewer access.

Where teams expand next
  • ReadyOps: Add workforce readiness and exercise records when communications need to sit inside one broader readiness motion.
  • Command: Add on-prem telemetry for regulated infrastructure.

Common Questions

Questions Teams Ask About Emergency Communications

Drill setup, response metrics, escalation records, and how communication readiness is measured.

Does Aurora send the actual emergency notifications?
Capabilities depend on your plan and configuration. Aurora documents the plans, logs drill results, and tracks response metrics regardless of the notification method used.
How do drill records satisfy audit requirements?
Drill records link to the controls that require communication testing. When auditors ask for evidence of out-of-band communication exercises, the records are mapped and exportable.
Can we track response times across different channels?
Yes. Response metrics break down by team and channel. This data identifies which channels are most reliable and where acknowledgment bottlenecks exist.
How is this different from Incident Readiness & Response?
Emergency Communications focuses specifically on notification chains, communication drills, and response timing. Incident Readiness & Response covers the broader IR plan: runbooks, roles, and exercise follow-ups.
