The company develops software using its patent-pending competitively differentiated encryption, which uses asymmetric authentication employed as PKI to provide user and sender verification with up to 2048-bit encryption. This improves upon standard multi-factor authentication by eliminating the additional hardware, licensing and support usually required to provide a comparable level security. With this encryption, all incoming and outgoing traffic is automatically encrypted and authenticated.
Advance Response Concepts Corporation
ARCC provides identity verification and emergency coordination between emergency services and infrastructure agencies as well as evidence tracking software for the Department of Justice. The emergency coordination package is based around the trademarked RaptorID system, which issues physical identification devices to first responders so that field operations can immediately identify each responder and establish their credentials. RaptorID smart cards store baseline attributes as mandated by national standards organizations like the National Fire Protection Association and often contain additional information about the user, including skills, training, certifications and medical records. The RaptorID system is designed to meet Federal Emergency Management Agency and ANSI specifications for first responder credentialing. ARCC's crime scene management and evidence tracking software, CONDOR, gives crime scene officials the ability to digitally record and track evidence throughout the chain of custody, as well as monitor the activities of all personnel involved. ARCC achieves this by embedding RFID trackers into each piece of evidence and biometrically scanning each official that attempts to accesses the evidence, all in accordance with the U.S. National Information Exchange Model compliance system.
