It often enough seems we’re on the ragged edge of failure when it comes to the viability of our statewide 911 systems. The latest outage and bout with cyber stress in MA may have been the result of some technical glitch or a firewall malfunction, but it still serves as a reminder of how important it is for us as a nation to prioritize dependability and resilience of such a critical piece of infrastructure.
I assume we’ve got people on the job, that leaders at all levels are mindful of the covert efforts of players foreign and domestic who have nothing better to do than sabotage emergency response systems and hold them hostage. Bastards.
Just one of the many areas of daily life that warrant constant vigilance.
