The Vismo Secure Portal is a web-based real-time employee tracking and employee safety platform that enables managers and security teams to monitor individuals’ locations in proximity to live alerts - provided by one of our trusted partners - all accessible through the secure web browser portal.
When a user activates a panic alert, account administrators, direct managers, or third-party Global Security Operations Centre (GSOCs) receive an in-app message, SMS, email, and text-to-voice notification containing the individual’s last known location, phone number, email address, and an audio recording from the time the alert was triggered.
The Vismo Secure Portal also provides a visual indication of the activated alert, accompanied by a klaxon sound to ensure all alerts receive an immediate response.
Authorised personnel can view the live location tracking history of individuals. This can be vital for auditing purposes, job costing, or proving safety. Location history trails provide a visual record of routes taken - useful in conjunction with geofencing, helping identify if individuals have travelled through areas identified as at-risk.

It is crucial that an alert from an individual is acted upon quickly and effectively - a speedy response can help save lives. The employee panic button triggers an immediate notification to designated administrators, along with the individual’s location, contact details, and an audio recording. The ability to acknowledge an active alert within the Vismo Secure Portal informs other administrators that the alert is being dealt with, reducing any overlap or missed alerts.
Vismo has created dashboards that allow administrators to customise what is viewed on the map. Dashboards can be configured to show a particular user, groups of users, incidents, locations and map types. Dashboards ensure administrators can quickly access the relevant data to monitor their employees, saving vital time in an emergency situation.
Vismo has created employee safety dashboards that allow administrators to customise what is viewed on the map. Dashboards can be configured to show a particular user, groups of users, incidents, locations and map types - giving security teams a tailored workforce visibility platform that surfaces only the data relevant to their role. Dashboards ensure administrators can quickly access the relevant data to monitor their employees, saving vital time in an emergency situation.
The Vismo Secure Portal is Vismo’s central web-based administration platform - the command layer that sits above the Vismo Locate & Protect App and connects all licence tiers into a single, unified interface. It gives security teams, HR managers, and GSOCs a live map view of their entire workforce, with tools to manage alerts, send mass notifications, and respond to incidents in real time.
As an employee location tracking system and incident management system, the portal handles the full lifecycle of a safety event - from the moment an employee raises an alert through to resolution and audit. It is accessible via any web browser, with no additional software installation required.
Core capabilities include:
Live map view of all active users with real-time employee tracking and location history trails
Panic alert reception and acknowledgement - with audio recording, last known location, and contact details
Mass notification sending to individuals or groups by geographic area or fixed address
Encrypted messaging to individuals and groups globally
Geofence configuration and live incident feed integration
Customisable dashboards, points of interest, and workforce visibility reporting
Single Sign-On (SSO) access and app configuration per licence type
Vismo has incorporated encrypted messaging within the Secure Portal and app. This enables administration teams to securely communicate globally with individuals and groups.
A ‘Point of Interest’ can be added to a location on the maps dashboard to help administrators gain a deeper understanding of a traveller’s location should an emergency arise.
Access the Vismo Secure Portal faster using Single Sign-On. Users no longer have to keep track of their credentials and can simply remember a single more complex password.
Depending on the Vismo licence deployed, organisations have options to change the look and feel of the Vismo Locate & Protect App to make it specific to your organisation. A company logo can be uploaded, the tiles are interchangeable and company websites and numbers can be added.
The Vismo Monitor App delivers notifications and alerts directly to your authorised administrators' mobile devices. All the important details are displayed, such as the users last known location, phone number, email address and an audio recording from when the alert was activated.
It's like having the Vismo Portal in your pocket.
What is the Vismo Secure Portal?
The Vismo Secure Portal is a web-based real-time employee tracking and incident management system that gives administrators live visibility of their workforce, the ability to send mass notifications, manage panic alerts, and communicate securely with individuals and groups globally. It works in conjunction with the Vismo Locate & Protect App and the Vismo Monitor App.
What is an incident management system and how does the portal support it?
An incident management system is a platform that enables an organisation to detect, respond to, and resolve safety or security incidents in a structured, auditable way. The Vismo Secure Portal functions as a safety incident management system - it receives panic alerts with location data, allows administrators to acknowledge and manage incidents, sends targeted mass notifications to affected employees, and logs all actions for post-incident review.
How does real-time employee tracking work in the portal?
The portal receives continuous location updates from the Vismo Locate & Protect App and displays them on a live map. Administrators can see each user’s current position, view their live location tracking history trail, and filter by user, group, or geographic area. Location data is powered by Vismo’s patented BlackBox® technology, which optimises GPS accuracy while minimising battery impact.
What employee location tracking system does Vismo use?
Vismo’s employee location tracking system combines the Locate & Protect App (iOS and Android) with the Vismo Secure Portal as the management layer. For organisations operating in areas without mobile coverage, Vismo’s satellite devices feed location data directly into the portal - ensuring no employee is ever out of reach.
How does the portal handle lone worker safety?
The portal is a core component of Vismo’s lone worker safety solution. When a lone worker raises a panic alert or misses a check-in, the portal immediately notifies designated administrators with the worker’s last known location and contact details, allowing a welfare check or emergency response to be initiated without delay.
What is the difference between the Secure Portal and the Vismo Monitor App?
The Secure Portal is the primary web-based administration interface - used on a desktop or laptop by security teams and administrators. The Vismo Monitor App is the mobile companion, delivering the same alerts and location data to administrators’ smartphones. The two work together: the portal is the central command view, and the Monitor App ensures designated responders receive alerts instantly even when away from their desk.
Does the portal support geofencing?
Yes. Administrators can configure geofences within the portal - defining geographic boundaries that trigger automatic alerts when an employee enters or exits a designated area. This is particularly useful for organisations monitoring staff in high-risk zones or ensuring compliance with proof of presence requirements at client sites.
Can the portal be used for travel security and business continuity?
Yes. The portal’s live incident feed integration and mass notification capability make it a central tool for travel security teams. When a threat intelligence feed identifies an incident in an area where employees are working or travelling, the portal automatically identifies affected users and enables a rapid, targeted response - with options for escalation to 24/7 monitoring if required.
