SIREN
SIREN (State of Illinois Rapid Electronic Notification) is a secure web-based persistent messaging and alerting system that leverages email, phone, text, pagers, and other messaging formats to provide 24/7/365 notification, alerting, and flow of critical information.
Self-registration begins at siren.illinois.gov, allowing you to receive important notifications form the Illinois Department of Public Health.
Below are a couple tips to assist you when registering
Basic Information
- Your email address will be your username.
Personal Information
- Information should be as detailed as possible so we can make sure you get the proper notifications.
- Do not abbreviate in the following fields: department, office, and job title.
- Your Secure PIN is a confidential number that only you should know. We use these PINs only when sending sensitive notifications to ensure it is you.
Contact Information
- Including a personal email address in your profile is recommended to guarantee you receive notifications after working hours.
- At minimum, we recommend adding your work phone and a personal cell number that can receive phone calls and text messages.
Membership
- Everyone will select the "SIREN - NEW USER REGISTRATION ONLY" organization. Alerts will be determined off your Personal Information.
Add the SIREN phone numbers (877) 649-8901 & 850-79 to your mobile contacts. This will help you quickly identify a SIREN alert notification and avoid confusing it with SPAM.
Please let us know if you have any questions and we would be happy to assist at DPH.SIREN@illinois.gov.
