Security
Nixle's servers are all located at NLETS, providing added security from would-be-hackers. This enables local police departments nationwide to send immediate alerts and advisories using their secure police terminals.
Nixle does not access Nlets' law enforcement information, they access their infrastructure. Nixle is designed on an emergency-grade platform hosted directly at the Nlets data center in Phoenix, Arizona, which features an on-site diesel generator for power failover, a Cisco firewall system and highly secured and tightly regulated physical access to the facility. Nixle's partnership with Nlets allows Nixle to provide access to police and fire agencies across the United States on their private network in their vehicle or handhelds without internet access.

Famous quotes containing the word security:
“The contention that a standing army and navy is the best security of peace is about as logical as the claim that the most peaceful citizen is he who goes about heavily armed. The experience of every-day life fully proves that the armed individual is invariably anxious to try his strength. The same is historically true of governments. Really peaceful countries do not waste life and energy in war preparations, with the result that peace is maintained.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“I think the girl who is able to earn her own living and pay her own way should be as happy as anybody on earth. The sense of independence and security is very sweet.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
“...I lost myself in my work and never felt that marriage would give me the security I wanted. I thought that through the trade union movement we working women could get better conditions and security of mind.”
—Mary Anderson (1872–1964)
