Natalia Sokolova’s Advocacy for School and Family Safety Reinforced Through Innovative Security Technologies

Introduction:

In today’s world, the safety and well-being of students in schools have become a top priority. With an alarming increase in school shootings and critical incidents, parents and educators are seeking effective solutions to protect what matters most. In response to this growing concern, Cytta Corp (OTCQB:CYCA) has developed its groundbreaking CyttaCARES (Crisis Alert and Response Emergency System) initiative. Seamlessly integrated into the company’s CyttaComms Toolkit for First Responders, CyttaCARES revolutionary SOS platform, offers real-time actionable intelligence to empower school staff and administrators to react promptly and effectively during critical emergencies.

Addressing the Concerns:

According to a recent Pew Research Survey, one-third of parents’ report being “very worried” or “extremely worried” about the possibility of a shooting at their child’s school. This worry is not unfounded, as school shootings in the USA in 2022 reached the highest number in two decades. Shockingly, over 6,000 children were killed or injured by gunfire, and more than 330 people were fatally shot or wounded on school grounds. These statistics highlight the urgent need for advanced security measures to safeguard schools.

The CARES Initiative: Real-Time Actionable Intelligence:

Cytta Corp’s CARES initiative provides a comprehensive system for emergency response in schools. By establishing an instantaneous link between school staff, school resource officers, and local law enforcement through real-time video, audio, and text communication, the CyttaCARES platform enables swift evaluation of the circumstances and initiation of appropriate measures. This integrated approach aims to potentially save lives and mitigate damage during critical incidents.

The simplicity and effectiveness of the CARES system lies in its seamless integration with existing school security systems. Teachers and school administrators can easily download the CyttaCARES app onto their cell phones, tablets, or laptops. In an emergency, pressing the emergency ICON immediately alerts the first responders through the CyttaComms incident management system. The CARES app provides realtime video/audio notification to all the officers at the local police or sheriff’s office. The alerted officers can then immediately interact with the alerting individual using video and audio, and simultaneously alert all other installed CARES applications within the school. This real-time situational awareness ensures that precious seconds and minutes are not wasted. Alerts, responses, and complete situational awareness now occurs within a minute or within the “Golden Minute.”
