Alert:24

Alert:24 is a security and operational resilience advisory practice, delivering intelligence, consulting and training solutions that help identify, monitor and manage security and geopolitical risks.

Organizations today face an increasingly complex and unpredictable world, with geopolitical instability, security threats, workforce safety concerns and evolving duty of care requirements creating a growing range of interconnected risks. As incidents unfold more rapidly and impacts intensify, a proactive, integrated approach to risk management and crisis response is essential.

Alert:24 helps clients worldwide address these risks and enhance crisis preparedness and response. In partnership with our broking teams, we combine operational insight with insurance and claims expertise to deliver a broad range of risk management solutions for some of the most complex risks.

Alert:24’s core functions

We operate across two core functions, bringing together global expertise and resources to provide you with support before, during and after events unfold.

Risk advisory solutions

We help organizations anticipate and prepare for threats impacting people, assets and operations, strengthen resilience, and respond effectively to crises and disruptive events. Our global network of consultants, project managers and intelligence analysts combines international best practice with operational experience to deliver practical, tailored support aligned to your organization’s unique needs.

Crisis support

We provide a 24/7 single point of contact to access crisis support when incidents occur. With operations centers in the U.K., U.S. and Australia, we connect you with brokers and claims teams, liaise with assistance providers and coordinate service delivery throughout the response. Services can also include high-risk travel monitoring and post-incident recovery support.
