Miami’s Ultra Music Festival That Attracts Tens-of-Thousands of People Will Once Again Use SaferWatch Technology & Mobile App to Keep Public Safe

As Events Across Nation Face New Kinds of Threats, Miami & Ultra Music Festival Has Adapted & the Public is Safer

MIAMI, March 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Ultra Music Festival 2025, taking place March 28–30 at Bayfront Park in downtown Miami, has once again selected SaferWatch as its safety reporting tool for the fifth consecutive year. This ongoing partnership is part of Ultra’s commitment to keep its high-energy celebration safe for all attendees. Festival-goers will have multiple, convenient channels to promptly report any safety concerns or incidents in real-time, helping law enforcement and fire rescue and event security respond swiftly without dampening the festival’s electric atmosphere.

Attendees are encouraged to “See Something, Send Something” by reporting issues through any of the following methods:

Call: 305-800-8477

Text: 305-800-8477

SaferWatch App: Submit photos and videos via the SaferWatch mobile app (Accessible on smartphones via the Apple App Store and Google Play.)

All reports can be made anonymously, ensuring that anyone can alert authorities to suspicious activity or emergencies without hesitation. Once a report is submitted, the SaferWatch app immediately notifies on-site security and law enforcement of the user’s location and details of the incident. The platform also supports two-way communication, so officials can provide instructions or ask follow-up questions as needed. By empowering attendees to share tips, including photos or videos directly from their phones, Ultra and SaferWatch aim to address potential issues proactively – often before they escalate.

This year marks five years of collaboration between Ultra and SaferWatch. The results of this sustained effort speak for themselves: Ultra’s 2022 festival saw a record low number of security incidents after new measures like the SaferWatch system were implemented. With over 170,000 people attending Ultra 2022 and similarly large crowds expected in 2025, the continued use of SaferWatch underscores Ultra’s dedication to attendee safety at large-scale events. Organizers have continually expanded safety initiatives—from increased on-site police and security presence to technology partnerships like SaferWatch—to create a secure environment where fans can focus on enjoying the music.

“Ultra Music Festival is an incredible event that brings together hundreds of thousands of fans. Ultra is committed to keeping their attendees safe and we are proud to play a role in the proactive and real-time safety measures for a large event like this,” said Geno Roefaro, CEO of SaferWatch. “By giving every attendee an easy, anonymous way to alert law enforcement and fire rescue to any concern, SaferWatch empowers festival-goers to play an active role in keeping the festival as safe as possible. We are proud to continue our partners in hip with Ultra for the fifth year running, helping to ensure everyone can enjoy the music while knowing that safety is a top priority.”

Axon Global CEO Israel Martinez Named Security Expert of the Year at HMG Strategy Summit in Dallas

By

Israel Martinez, CEO and Global CTO of Axon Global, was named Security Expert of the Year at the HMG Strategy Summit in Dallas, the largest network of CIOs and CISOs in the U.S. with over 300,000 technology executives globally. Martinez was honored for his groundbreaking work in AI-driven cybersecurity and a 20-year track record of zero reportable breaches across high-risk, high-impact environments. He also spoke on a featured panel addressing the escalating threat of geopolitical cyberattacks and the critical need for global cyber resilience.

DALLAS, April 4, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Israel Martinez, CEO and Global CTO of Axon Global, was honored with the HMG Global Leadership Institute Award for Security Expert of the Year at the HMG Strategy Executive Leadership Summit in Dallas. The event brought together top technology executives from across the country for a day of thought leadership, innovation, and strategic insights.

“Israel is fearlessly committed to innovation and integrity—and when lives are on the line, his team shows up.” — August Pelliccio, Executive Editor, Digital, HMG Strategy,

Martinez also took the stage as a featured speaker during the Executive Panel: Securing the Future Against Geopolitical Cyber Risks, joining Mignona Cote (CISO, Infor Global Solutions) and Art Harvey (CISO, Dovenmuehle) for a dynamic conversation on the rising threat of state-sponsored cyberattacks and the critical importance of international collaboration, proactive threat intelligence, and executive-led cyber resilience.

During the award presentation, HMG Strategy highlighted Martinez’s exceptional track record:

“Israel has helped protect everything from billion-dollar enterprises to space programs, with a track record of zero reportable breaches—by the way—across twenty years and countless high-risk clients.

Right now he’s pioneering an AI agent-driven model, building out a team of two hundred LLM-powered experts that already compete and win against the best in the world.

How’s this for a case study? One of the teams he worked with monetized IT for the Olympics, turning it into a profit engine rather than just a cost center. They increased media revenue by 300% and eliminated redundant global oversight.

Israel is fearlessly committed to innovation and integrity, and when lives are on the line, his team shows up. As one Commander put it, ‘Thank you for pulling so many technology resources together to rescue my daughter.’

There are only so many clips I can share in the brief time we have on stage, but I hope what I’ve shared expresses some of the gravity of the work Israel has done—and how deserving he is of this honor.”

HMG Strategy is recognized as the largest network of CIOs and CISOs in the United States, with over 300,000 IT executives globally. Its Executive Leadership Summits are known for convening top-tier professionals to tackle the most urgent challenges in technology and business.
