User Guide: Everbridge Integration Expansion — Executive Protection
Overview
The Bearing–Everbridge integration now supports synchronizing Protected Assets (PRAs) with Everbridge Assets, asset-type management, geofencing, and automated alert creation — enabling SOC teams to manage Everbridge Assets directly from Bearing while keeping both platforms aligned.
What's New
- Create Everbridge Assets from the PRA form — create and manage a corresponding Everbridge Asset directly from a Protected Asset, including temporary activation periods, location data, and alertability settings.
- PRA geofence — define a configurable geofence radius on a PRA; Bearing creates a corresponding area in Everbridge around the PRA location and links it to the Everbridge Asset.
- Automatic alert creation — when an Everbridge Alert affects a synchronized Everbridge Asset or intersects a linked geofence area, Bearing automatically creates and links a Bearing Alert, so impacted PRAs are identified without manual action.
- Affected PRA parsing — Everbridge alerts ingested into Bearing include the affected Protected Asset.
- Asset type import & flow actions — administration support for asset-type imports and a set of reusable flow actions for Everbridge operations.
For SOC Admins: Synchronizing a PRA with Everbridge
- Open the Protected Asset you want to synchronize.
- Use the Everbridge section/action on the PRA form to create the Everbridge Asset, setting location data, alertability, and (if temporary) the activation period.
- Set the geofence radius for the PRA. Bearing creates the corresponding Everbridge area and links it to the asset.
For SOC Operators
No manual steps are required: when Everbridge issues an alert affecting a synchronized asset or intersecting a geofence, a linked Bearing Alert is created automatically and identifies the impacted PRA(s). Process it from the Alert queue as usual.
