3. What is TRIS?
TRIS is a highly evolved system for monitoring emerging threats
and live incidents in real-time on a global scale that could impact
the health, safety or security of personnel and other assets. Used
by corporations worldwide as a definitive business resilience tool,
our highly skilled teams of analysts operate 24/7, investigating a
multitude of sources to identify relevant incidents and immediately
report them to subscribers via a leading-edge alerting platform.
The digital map dashboard offers a multitude of data feeds and
overlays, and can be configured further to incorporate external
sources of pertinent risk information.The ability to personalize the
dashboard, so it only displays information that’s crucial to your role,
helps you instantly visualize the locality of emerging threats or live
incidents in relation to your employees and other assets.
Dashboard data feeds and overlays:
■■ Incidents
■■ Travelers
■■ Expats
■■ Property assets
■■ Country risk levels
■■ Heat mapping
■■ Custom external data feeds, such as
severe weather and crime statistics
■■ System usage monitoring and
custom widgets
The use of effective search tools enables
you to capture detailed information
about those who could be impacted
by an incident, so you can either contact
affected individuals directly from the
system or export and share the data
with concerned colleagues.
TRIS also features a powerful analysis tool
underpinned by risk data captured by
our analysts over many years. Subscribers
can use the information to understand
current incident trends and compare
with historic data to identify risk patterns
and consider future trends.
In addition, TRIS provides corporations
and their employees with a consolidated
resource of information for all countries
and major cities around the world;
focussing on facts that can be depended
on to support business travelers in

“It’s no good hearing about an incident hours after it
has happened.We useTRIS as we appreciate the speed
of reporting and concise alerts – it’s highly effective”
Chief Security Officer, Global Energy Company
TRIS is supported by a global team of risk analysts who operate
24/7 to identify and report on incidents and events that could
impact employee safety or business continuity. In addition, the
team is responsible for continually updating risk information
stored in the TRIS database to ensure the content is always the
very latest available from our wide range of risk data sources.
Our analysts monitor literally 1,000’s of sources to gather
relevant information, including:
■■ International, national and local media, news wires,
social media and retained in-country sources
■■ The World Health Organization (WHO), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention and United Nations
■■ Warnings and advisories from overseas embassies and
consuls regarding security conditions for the countries
in which they are operational
■■ In-country police, law enforcement, military, security and
intelligence services
■■ Government and NGO organizations
■■ Anvil’s network of global partners
and own employees located around the world
As well as reporting the established facts about an incident
and providing general advice, our analysts will geocode
How does TRIS work?
the exact location of the incident with longitude and latitude
coordinates, and assign a threat level numeric indicator,
so subscribers can understand the potential impact of the
incident.
Alerts are issued within 15 minutes of our analysts becoming
aware of the incident and are sent via email as standard. Other
communication methods can be adopted as specified by our
clients through custom designed incident response procedures.
TRIS is beneficial to all departments
within globally operating corporations
who have a level of responsibility for
ensuring employee safety and business
continuity, including security, risk,
travel, HR and insurance. It delivers a
wealth of risk information consolidated
into one central resource, which assists
in understanding the current risk
profile of every country and major city
around the world.
In addition, TRIS allows for the
compilation of risk assessments,
security briefs and development
of travel safety policies.
TRIS is operated through a secure
and easy to use internet based portal,
and utilizes innovative technology
and software that has been developed
totally in-house by Anvil’s highly skilled
IT developers and risk analysts.
The system can be linked to corporate
intranets, so that employees in general
can benefit from access to all or some
of its features.
Who is TRIS
designed for?
Having the right information at the
right time is critical to protect the
corporation and its employees from
threats and incidents that could
affect not only the health, safety and
wellbeing of the workforce, but also
business profitability, shareholder
value and brand reputation.
5. What makes TRIS unique?
The system’s uncluttered design and intuitive interface makes TRIS easy to
use, but the major benefit ofTRIS over competing systems is the ability to tailor
and configure the platform to meet an organization’s unique requirements.
As standard, an administrator of the system will be able to:
■■ Upload information about additional cities or areas of specific interest
to their organization
■■ Adjust country and city/area risk levels according to the organization’s
appetite to risk
■■ Define high risk areas within a country
■■ Edit sections of country and city/area content provided by Anvil
■■ Add company specific advice in regard to travel or operations within
countries and cities/areas
■■ Add their own unique data sources, such as contact details for
in-country security managers, lists of approved hotels and links to
travel or insurance policy documents
■■ Configure the dashboard to display a full screen global map view;
ideal for security control room environments
Personal alerts
Nobody benefits from an inbox full of
irrelevant emails, so TRIS allows users to
create alert profiles that can be defined
by exact geographic location, incident
categories and threat levels of interest
specific to their travel plans or business
operations. Grouped under the six incident
category headings of Crime, General
Safety, Health, Security, Transportation
and Other, there are currently 75 different
incident categories to select from. Alerts
can also be set to continue indefinitely
or for a defined time period.
Fixed assets and supply chain
TRIS is exceptional in its approach
to storing information and alerting
organizations to threats and incidents
that could impact physical assets, like
office buildings and distribution centers,
or other key infrastructure, such as
supply chain routes. Subscribers can
upload 1,000’s of assets and allocate
them to groups and fields that can be
fully customized to match the unique
structure of the client organization.
Proximity Alerts
Proximity alerts are triggered when an
incident is reported within a pre-set
distance of an asset. As with personal
alerts, users are able to define what
type of alerts they want to receive by
geographic location, incident category
and threat level. In addition, they can
set up a profile to generate an alert
according to the distance of the incident
from the asset.
TRIS and the Employee Travel
Monitoring System
TRIS can be fully integrated with Anvil’s
traveler tracking solution, the Employee
Travel Monitoring System (ETMS).
As soon as an incident is reported
within TRIS, the systems will
cross-correlate to determine the
identity of any travelers that could
be impacted by the incident and an
alert will be sent automatically, either
directly to the travelers or to those
responsible for their safety.
ETMS recently won a Queen’s
Award for Enterprise in the
category of continuous
innovation. The UK’s most prized
business accolade was awarded to
Anvil in recognition of the benefits
the system provides to business
travelers and their employers in
regard to implementing effective
risk management strategies.
Country and Area
Information Pages
TRIS has a dedicated page of
comprehensive risk management
information for every country and
major city around the world. Along
with content provided by Anvil’s
risk analysts, TRIS offers a myriad
of relevant information to support
international travel and operations.
Each country and city/area is
assigned a risk level, so that users
