Emergency Planning For Snow

November 25th, 2010 No comments

Emergency Planning is mainly common sense borne of experience but you’d be surprised how infrequently people take action to mitigate against something that has caught them out in the past.

A good example is planning for heavy snow or icy road conditions.  Most of use could put together a quick list of items that we ought to have in the car just in case we get stuck – like warm clothing – but we never quite get around to it and often leap into the car in carpet slippers to pick the wife and kids up after school or grab a bit of toast and hit the GPS because we’re running late.

If that sound like you then you might find it useful to watch this short video shot by the BBC to see what sort of things you really ought to consider before making a jrne in te next 10 days.

The National Security Council is also set to publish new information and guidelines to help businesses and government organizations defenc themselves against cyber threats in the coming weeks and months.

But what do we mean by “cyber attack” and how can you protect your people, data, reputation and cashflow from damaging disruptions caused by cyber attacks?

In this short video, I outline what is meant by cyber attack and give some hints about the sorts of things you need to do to defend yourself and your business.

Please give us a call if you’d like to discuss further.
