Critical Communications in Dubai offers Global Networking, Interactive Sessions
As the Critical Communications Association states in their pocket guide, “Critical services must be able to cope with high peak demands and provide ubiquitous coverage, as well as extremely high guaranteed availability, reliability and resilience.” Unexpected events that put individuals' or group’s safety or security at risk can happen anywhere at any time. In some cases, these events occur far from populated areas or can include a degradation of commercial communications.
Critical communications services must be secure, reliable and interoperable to enable efficient response and use of public safety resources during these events.
