Active Shooter False Alarm: What Your Organization Can and Can’t Control

KEYWORDS: active shooter / active shooter incidents / false alarms
11/2/22 2:00 pm to 11/2/23 EDT
Contact: Amy Harrison
Our modern-day readiness regarding the active shooter threat has created an alarming operational phenomenon that many institutions are inadvertently subjected to - the active shooter false alarm event. The summer of 2022 has seen a wide range of organizations that were exposed to the terrifying experience of receiving a notification alert about an active shooter or reacting to a person running from something they misunderstood as a discharged firearm. Thankfully, many of these unrealized critical incidents were cases of false alerts and the absence of gun violence. But as the FBI recently reported in their 2021 statistics, active shooter events have increased by over 50% from 2020. While these events are still rare, it should not come as a surprise that both security teams and the public are now more likely to misinterpret loud noises as a gun violence event. In each one of these cases, customers, employees, and law enforcement quickly had to decide what actions to take while trying to ascertain exactly where the perceived danger was coming from. For employees and customers, finding safety is the primary concern. However, for security and law enforcement, the need for real-time, validated information is critical for both the assessment of the active shooter report and rapidly deploying communications designed to reduce fear and avoid property damage.

After this educational webinar attendees will learn how to:
  • Understand the factors and circumstances that are causing false alarm events in all types of environments.
  • Learn the controllable and uncontrollable factors as to why the phenomena will continue.
  • Hear about case studies detailing the enterprise impact and the challenges in the recovery process.
