NLT is in Boulder, CO, this week, proudly sponsoring and presenting at the National Geospatial Preparedness Summit.
Discover key strategies for preparedness for natural disasters to cybersecurity threats during National Preparedness Month.
The beginning of September marks the beginning of National Preparedness Month, a period that encourages people on a personal level as well as businesses to increase their level of preparedness for unforeseen challenges. With today's unpredictability, being prepared has become critical. We have compiled this extensive guide to provide insights into areas of focus, thereby making it possible for a community to be created in which no individual or entity is left vulnerable to unanticipated catastrophes.
It is expected that by 2035, older adults will constitute a larger proportion of the population than younger generations. During times of crisis, ensuring their safety becomes a top priority.
There is the possibility that natural disasters will immediately put a stop to business operations. Building up a tolerance for the occurrence of calamities such as these is absolutely necessary for the sustained success of a company. During this time of year, it is important to keep in mind the following factors in order to ensure the continuity of business operations:
The vulnerability of supply chains, which can be intricate and extensive, has become increasingly apparent, particularly in recent times. Below are a few key factors to consider in maintaining supply chain stability:
To achieve maximum output, it is essential to ensure the psychological as well as physical wellbeing of workers. By addressing both the mental and physical safety aspects, businesses can foster a culture of care and diligence. Here's a deeper look into ensuring this safety:
A preventative strategy is required because the number of incidents of this kind continues to rise. Proactively shaping a strategy, training employees, and building collaborations with experts can greatly mitigate the risks and potential aftermath. Let's look into each of the layers of this preparation:
The information we store online and about ourselves is now just as important as our actual identities. With businesses rapidly digitizing, the threat landscape has evolved dramatically. Cybersecurity isn't just about preventing unauthorized access; it's about safeguarding an organization's integrity, client trust, and brand reputation. Let's discuss how to shield ourselves in this digital age:
An unforeseen event or even a minor slip can snowball into a reputational crisis if not handled promptly and adeptly. Beyond the immediate financial repercussions, a tarnished reputation can lead to a long-term erosion of trust. Crafting an effective crisis management strategy is not just about damage control; it's about being resilient, transparent, and accountable. Here, we will explore the cornerstones of reputation management during turbulent times:
National Preparedness Month reminds us of the importance of readiness in an unpredictable world. In line with this, our collaboration with REDICOP highlights the potential of utilizing advanced technologies, like remote sensing, to better manage emergencies. This initiative, co-organized with the MIT Lincoln Laboratory, brings together diverse stakeholders to optimize remote sensing in disaster management.
This guide by New Light Technologies provides essential knowledge for individuals, communities, and businesses, reinforcing our commitment to safety and preparedness. We encourage everyone to stay informed by exploring trusted resources like Ready.Gov and to continually enhance safety measures.
Together, let's work towards a safer present and a more resilient future. And as we navigate the complexities of preparedness, remember that collaboration and knowledge-sharing remain our most potent tools.
