Security Overview
The Security Overview section gives you a map overview of all your users and facilities together with the location of recent incidents. It allows you to quickly identify who might be at risk and communicate with them to make sure they are OK. With the Quick Selector feature, you also have the option to select an area on the map and directly communicate to everyone within that area.
You can choose between several map views — including Risk Map, Covid-19 Map, Default Map, and Satellite Map — to which you can add information layers to customize your view.
Risk Map
In the Risk Map, all countries are given a color based on their overall risk level. You can click on a specific country to get more in-depth risk information. Our risk assessment methodology is based on ten risk categories and five risk levels produced by our internal team of risk analysts. You also have the option to edit risk information to align it with any requirements you might have.

Covid-19 Map
The Covid-19 Map illustrates the total number of confirmed Covid-19 cases in a region or country in the last 30 days. You can also add Covid-related information layers, such as Covid-19 restrictions and quarantine areas, to the map, for a complete global update.
Information Layers
- Quarantine Areas
Quarantine Areas imposed by the local government are marked with a squared pattern, as shown in the image above.
- Covid-19 Restrictions
When adding Covid-19 restrictions as an information layer to the map you are provided with insights regarding international travel restrictions, including requirements for PCR testing on arrival and departure, internal restrictions (workplace closings, cancellation of public events, restrictions on gatherings, etcetera) and information from airline operators in the country.
- Travel Warnings
Travel Warnings are all geographical areas where you currently are advised not to travel by ministries of foreign affairs.
- Alerts
Another information layer you can plot on the map in the Security Overview section is Alerts, which are notifications about incidents within any of the following categories:
- Civil Unrest
- Crime
- Environment
- Health and Medical
- Infrastructure and Transport
- Insurgency
- Armed Conflict
- International Relations
- Kidnap
- Political Stability
- Terrorism
All alerts are also assigned a risk level and impact radius by Safeture’s analysts. The impact radius is represented by a circle around the incident on the map, which is dynamic and varies depending on whether it is seen as a local or country-wide incident. The radius can be set to a distance between 10 km and 1000 km. An incident can also have multiple impact locations.
Read more about our risk assessment methodology on Safeture’s website.
If any employee or facility is located within the radius of the incident, the Safeture Platform will identify the threat and notify Administrators immediately. The end-user will get an alert and information about the event and advice on how to act. For medium- and high-risk alerts, end-users are also requested to confirm that they are OK in the Safeture Mobile Application.
Learn more about the alert publication process on Safeture’s website.

Company Assets
- Personnel
If you tick the Personnel box, the system will plot all users on the map. The icons representing your users are given different colors based on their position accuracy, which reflects the privacy levels set in the Safeture Mobile Application.
- Exact Location
For users with a blue icon, exact GPS coordinates are given.
- City Level
For users with their privacy filter set to City Level, their position is anonymized to within a 20 x 20 km square.
- Region / State
This displays just the region or state where the employee is located. The subregions available in the system are defined by the ISO 3166-2 standard, which means that countries are divided into states, regions, provinces, counties, or similar.
- Position older than 24 hours
A striped icon signals that there is no up-to-date location report for that user. The threshold for when a location report should be marked as old can be configured in the Settings section of the Web Portal.
- Emergency
When an end-user has activated the emergency button, the icon will turn red and flash as a configurable audio alert is activated.
- Missed Scheduled Check-in
In any case of a missed check-in, the user’s icon will turn yellow.
- Airport/Hotel Position
In addition to phone locations provided through the Safeture Mobile Application, the Safeture Platform can also position employees through travel booking data. This is done by integrating with your Travel Management Company (TMC) to stream the travel data to the platform.
- Facilities
Any static location, such as your offices, factories, warehouses, stores, etcetera can be added as a facility and plotted on the map to identify any potential threat to the people working there.

Filtering of users
In the users section of the new filtering menu, you can filter your people based on:
- Customer – choose desired account
- Subscription – subscription number
- Location – countries
- Groups – groups of users
- Status – active or inactive
- Home – home or traveling users.
You can also manually add people by searching for a name, phone number, or country.
Filtering of incidents
In the section for incidents, you can customize the display of incidents based on:
- Location – country
- Scope – time interval
- Severity – low, medium or high-risk alerts.
- Publisher – either Safeture or an external organization
Updates has also been made to the dashboard where you now can find a link to edit the countries you would like to see alerts from in the dashboard’s incident feed from the last 24 hours.
Filtering of risk
In the section for risk categories, you can choose to see the risk levels for each country given a specific risk category.
Quick Selector
With the Quick Selector, you can easily draw a shape on the map and message all users located within that area. The selected area can be part of a country, city, or even multiple countries at once.

Scheduled Check-Ins
Scheduled Check-ins enable a systematic way of making sure your employees are OK. As an Administrator, you can set specific dates and times when you want individuals or groups to check in. A missed check-in will trigger notifications to selected Administrators and a new widget to appear on the Dashboard. The check-in time is automatically set to each end-user’s current time zone.

Account Select
When managing several accounts at the same time, the Account Select function enables you to quickly switch views for different accounts. This function can be found at the top right of the Web Portal on all modules.

Clustering
Get a better overview by clustering the elements displayed on the Risk Map.
When zooming out on the map in the Web Portal with the cluster option is enabled, incidents, users, and facilities will be displayed in clusters.
The cluster of incidents is given the color of the highest severity out of the clustered incidents and will display a blue polygon presenting the outer bounding border of all incidents when hovering the icon.
Note: All filters and options are stored in the browser’s local storage, which means they will remain as they were between sessions and when navigating back and forth on the Web Portal.
