one2many cell broadcast – Alert millions in seconds when it matters most
Delivering the fastest nationwide population emergency alerting in one click, without opt-in
In emergency situations, it’s critical that the population trust the emergency alerts they receive from public authorities. International telecommunication standardization bodies have acknowledged CB as the most viable mobile technology for implementing mobile emergency alerts in 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G networks.
Reach millions of people in seconds
CB works on a one-to-many basis; one message can be sent to millions of devices within a target area in seconds. The specified area may be a single radio cell site or the entire mobile network. CB utilizes dedicated network signaling and is unaffected by network congestion, making it ideal for sending rapid alerts and critical information to citizens, residents, and visitors in a specific area.
With Cell Broadcast (CB), it’s possible to send a text-like message:
- To millions of mobile devices in seconds
- Without opting in or pre-registration
- Within a specific geographic area
- To citizens and visitors from other countries
- In different languages
- Without being affected by or contributing to network congestion
CB is already being used for government population alerting services around the globe, such as EU-Alert (Europe), CMAS/WEA (USA), National Message (Israel), LAT-Alert (Chile) and the Earthquake Tsunami Warning System (Japan).

Modern population alerting
leverages Cell Broadcast
Now that mobile phones are the most ubiquitous communications channel, classic emergency alert channels such as sirens, radio, and TVs are no longer sufficient and should be supplemented to broaden reach.
Through text messages, public authorities can reach as many people as possible, convey the level of detail needed, and advise the public to take any actions necessary.
one2many CB enables location-specific emergency alerts without the need to register or know about individual devices. The solution is compliant with the current EU Directive (EECC Article 110), all data protection and privacy laws, and regulations including GDPR.
