Frequently asked questions

1. What is the fastest way to trigger armed security response in South Africa?

The fastest way is through an AURA-enabled panic button — whether via a partner’s mobile app, the AURA white-label app, or a connected wearable. Once activated, AURA’s autonomous dispatch technology instantly identifies and alerts the closest PSIRA-registered armed response vehicle nationwide. Responders receive your exact GPS location and navigate directly to you for the fastest possible intervention.

2. How does AURA ensure safety for employees in high-risk areas?

AURA enables businesses to protect employees anywhere in South Africa through real-time mobile panic activation, live incident tracking, 24/7 control room oversight, and immediate dispatch of the nearest vetted responder. Detailed reporting and analytics help organisations manage risk, strengthen duty-of-care, and support compliance and governance.

3. Is AURA’s emergency response service available outside major cities?

Yes. AURA operates one of South Africa’s largest private emergency response networks, with over 3,000 security vehicles and nationwide EMS partners, giving users coverage across all nine provinces — including smaller towns and semi-rural areas. GPS-based dispatch ensures the closest available responder is sent, regardless of where the incident occurs.

4. How is AURA different from traditional panic systems?

Unlike traditional alarm systems that rely on manual control room decisions, AURA uses machine-to-machine autonomous dispatch to instantly route emergencies to the nearest vetted security or medical responder. Users get full transparency with live GPS tracking, responder details, and control-room communication — from activation to resolution.

5. Can AURA be integrated into existing apps, platforms, or devices?

Absolutely. AURA offers flexible integration options including APIs, SDK components, web-based dispatch portals, white-label apps, IoT panic buttons, and wearable Bluetooth panic devices. This means insurers, banks, telcos, security providers, and mobility platforms can embed instant emergency response directly into their existing customer experience.

6. Is AURA compliant with South African security regulations such as PSIRA?

Yes. All security responders on the AURA network in South Africa are trained, experienced, and registered with PSIRA, ensuring compliance with national standards and professional service delivery at every incident. AURA’s medical network also partners only with accredited EMS providers.
