Homeland Security
Communicating securely and in real time, from any location, is paramount for securing our nation’s homeland. In fact, it can save lives. Training soldiers overseas on the latest maneuvers or artillery, sharing orders with commanders or fellow soldiers, or collaborating with Washington on strategies for the latest mission overseas can protect our troops and even keep morale high. While there are myriad technologies now available for collaboration in general, only VIA3 can offer the security and mobility of complete collaboration from the desktop including voice, video, instant messages, chat, application sharing and sensitive information exchange—all integrated into one package.
First Responder Communications
First responders, including police officers, fire fighters and paramedics, need real-time collaboration to coordinate emergency response efforts. Otherwise, rescue, response or salvage efforts might be duplicated or miscalculated, causing additional problems for all involved. VIA3 offers instant, interoperable communications to facilitate and streamline these efforts.
Telework
Teleworking improves employee morale, reduces office needs, and helps meet air quality or transportation mandates. Congress is taking a more active role by enforcing financial penalties if minimum teleworking participation is not met. VIA3 offers a secure and cost effective way to connect home office workers with the main office, without the need for expensive VPNs, conference calls, or other technology investments.

Alert Systems
The threat of bio-terrorism attacks and computer viruses require instant communications to those who can prohibit—or at least limit—the potential danger. VIA3 secure instant message capabilities make the initial warning possible, while limiting who gets access to the information before a plan of action can be established.
Criminal Proceedings
The costs and risks associated with handling prisoners, including transporting, arraigning, interviewing, and appearing in court, can be enormous—not to mention the time consumed to perform these activities. VIA3 alleviates these costs for justice departments, by enabling secure communications between attorneys, plaintiffs, and judges—without the need to transport prisoners to court sites.

Health Records
Protecting a patient’s privacy is more than just important: it’s the law. Organizations that collect, store or transact patient health information (PHI) must comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996, which in part requires basic safeguards to protect electronic PHI from unauthorized access or transmission. VIA3 seamlessly helps agencies meet this critical mandate by encrypting all data shared or stored online.
Telemedicine
Telemedicine is an essential component in the delivery of modern medicine to help get care where it’s needed most—even when it is not possible to be there in person. Using telecommunications such as VIA3, medical professionals anywhere can instantly share a patient's symptoms with experts who can more easily diagnose the condition.
