Since the start of Russia's increasingly brutal war in Ukraine, the West has ramped up pressure on the rest of the world to condemn Moscow's belligerence and join sanctions against Russia and its regime. In the vast Indo-Pacific region, however, the West's message has fallen flat.

The Incident Command System (ICS) can be complex in itself to any novice learning about it for the first time. What can make it even more challenging is when disciplines and jurisdictions begin trying to operate as a Unified Command. The concept of unified command is not well understood and what appears clear cut decision making can be countered by others as being inappropriate.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine and resulting sanctions will likely devastate Russia's economy. If the country had taken a more productive economic course over the past two decades, it might be looking toward a different future—one in which economic reforms had more tightly integrated Russia with the economically advanced countries, enhanced Russian influence and power, and built global trust.

Let’s face it. Incidents can be expensive— really expensive. But the high cost of incidents within a production environment isn’t always due to a compromised service or negative customer experience. According to PagerDuty response data, over 50% of an incident’s lifespan is spent with first responders in the investigation and mobilization phases (what we call ‘triage’) — in other words, determining what might have gone wrong and calling the right person to fix it.

Traditionally, the cameras have been hidden in corners, mounted on light poles, or attached to the sides of buildings. But that is changing. Now when visiting retailers, customers might actually notice the cameras because they are not subtly installed on the roof.

Times change…and priorities change. For the past 25 years, most IT orgs have been focused on how to speed up backups to fit in a backup window. Accelerators, change block tracking, and even deduplication and compression were employed to help fit in as many backup jobs as possible in a given time frame. Recovery was more about being able to recover, rather than how much data or how fast.

When it comes to business continuity planning, a lot of organizations think about anticipated event types and make plans to adequately address them. And some of the best programs take this one step further—they imagine other plausible scenarios and create plans that are flexible enough to address those types of events, too. But the strongest and most resilient organizations don’t focus on single event response.

Although people often use the words “assess” and “analyze” interchangeably, the terms are not synonymous in risk management. Each one has a specific meaning, and the distinction between the two is important. A risk assessment forms the backbone of your overall risk management plan. A risk analysis is one piece of the assessment process, where you determine the likelihood and criticality of each risk, and then assign each risk a score based on your findings.
