ATIX: "What is RISS ATIX?
RISS recognizes the need for information exchange to extend beyond law enforcement. To fulfill this need, in 2002, RISS launched the Automated Trusted Information Exchange (ATIX) to expand communication and information sharing to public safety and private sector officials. RISS ATIX is a communications system that allows authorized users to share terrorism and homeland security information in a secure, real-time environment. These RISS ATIX™ participants include executives and officials from governmental and nongovernmental entities. Participants are designated into specific communities based on their role regarding the prevention, response, mitigation, and recovery efforts related to disasters or other public safety or law enforcement efforts. These RISS ATIX "communities" are those governmental and nongovernmental organizations involved in prevention and response efforts regarding disasters, terrorism, and other public safety matters. RISS ATIX communities include entities such as local, county, state, and tribal levels of emergency management, law enforcement, private security, environmental protection, banking and finance, and hospitality industries. New communities are added to RISS ATIX as the service expands to encompass more entities involved in local and national security.
