Pope County has partnered with Regroup to launch a new mass notification system designed to keep the community informed and prepared during critical events. This advanced platform delivers urgent updates through phone calls, text messages, emails, and more; ensuring fast, reliable communication when it matters most.
The CodeRed by Onsolve Emergency Notification System previously used by Pope County and a large group of other governments and agencies nationwide has been decommissioned following a cyber attack and data breach at the vendor level. OnSolve customers lost access to the platform on November 10, 2025. Agencies that relied on the platform have also had access to FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) revoked, limiting the ability to quickly send out emergency notifications.
If you created a CodeRed account and used the same username and password elsewhere, we strongly recommend updating those passwords immediately. If you receive any alerts or messages claiming to be from CodeRed on behalf of Pope County, do not engage and terminate the communication. Pope County accessed CodeRed through a web-based application, and no other county infrastructure has been compromised.
