Real-Time Technology Group: Company Earns Homeland Security Safety Act Designation
Flemington, N.J. — Aug. 26, 2015 — Real-Time Technology Group (RTTG), a leading provider of secure and hosted Identity and Risk Management solutions, announced that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has awarded its Real-Time Verification (RTV) technology with SAFETY ACT Designation.
This designation program was established to reward invention and commercialization of anti-terrorism technologies.
RTTG received DHS SAFETY ACT protections for RTV as a Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology (QATT) following a rigorous review and evaluation process. The Secure Worker Access Consortium (SWAC), driven by RTTG's RTV technology platform, was one of the key considerations in this review process.
SWAC is a unique Trusted Community of contractors that support the construction and maintenance of the World Trade Center complex and New York City metro region’s critical transportation infrastructure. This innovative and secure information-sharing program helps ensure that workers who access sensitive facilities are known, safe, and threat-free.
Specifically, RTV is a Web-based software-as-a-service ("SaaS") application that provides comprehensive personnel assurance through the secure collection and audited need-to-know sharing of sensitive personal information.
The technology is designed to assist risk managers in evaluating and assuring employee and contractor compliance with local safety and security procedures. RTV supports the following secure processes: Online Enrollment, Positive Identity Verification (including document validation), Threat Screening and Monitoring, Compliance Measurement, and Credential Issuance and Authentication. RTV’s real-time data analysis delivers continuous evaluation of compliance criteria, including Terrorist Watch Lists, civil and criminal Public Record Alerts, and continuing education.
“This prestigious designation assures our clients that DHS has thoroughly reviewed our technology and hosting infrastructure, and deemed that it meets the high standards required as a designated Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology,” said Daniel Krantz, managing director and CEO of Real-Time Technology Group. “The result of more than 15 years of hard work, it’s very rewarding for our team to receive this recognition. We all come to work knowing that we contribute to our nation’s safety and security."
