Description
The failure of Microsoft Windows IT based systems as a result of a third part software update from Cloudstrike serves as a telling tale of preparedness. Who has been affected, to what degree and how is their recovery planning rolling out?
Preparedness is the set of cognitive decisions and physical actions undertaken in times of peace that facilitate navigating chaos.
We live in a modern, technologically enabled inter-connected society, facilitated by the provision of critical infrastructure. This normally occurs below our radar with scant consideration, until it is no longer available. Your preparedness is correlated with your exposure to and dependancy on the sectors of critical infrastructure. Adapt, learn and strategize.
