The MAGNUS suite of services includes crisis response, security risk management, evacuation planning and execution, and 24/7 control centers in Tel Aviv, East Africa, Europe, and Northeast Asia. MAGNUS’s global network of high-ranking government officials, search and rescue units, private hospitals, helicopter operators, security professionals, and emergency medical teams ensures local support and rapid assistance to travelers around the world. MAGNUS also utilizes tailor-built technology to provide customers with round-the-clock access to emergency response through satellite location tracking, access to safety and medical assistance experts, weather-related alerts, and more.
