There are many things to do in the event SHTF, or Shadow Homeland Threat Failure. Knowledge is power. Preparedness is key to staying safe in any disaster, whether it be nuclear war or large-scale cyber attack. Listed below are a few tips to prepare for SHTF.
Prepared for a nuclear bomb attack
When you are preparing for a nuclear strike, the first thing to do is ensure you have somewhere safe to go. The shelter should be accessible for at most 24 hours. You can stay there until authorities leave. Avoid windows and walls that could be damaged by radiation. Also, avoid buildings that might fall on you. A public building should have a phone.
When you hear of a nuclear attack, there are three things you should do: Get inside a building that is dusty, take a shower, keep an eye on social media and sign up to "Notify NYC." Once you've done these steps, the next thing you need to do is call your local radio stations to get updates on the attack.
Preparing for large-scale cyber attacks
Cyberattacks have become more frequent, but it's essential to recognize the risks and be prepared. Cyberattacks can be used to steal, expose, and even destroy information. These attacks can be devastating. It doesn't matter if you are the target or not, it is important to be prepared.
The United States is under cyberattack by nations with advanced network infrastructures, which allow high-speed wireless and wired Internet connectivity. These nations are largely comprised of an ethnic minority from country Y. There are two CERT groups in the country. One that is affiliated to the largest internet provider in country and one that is newly established and funded by government.
Companies must not only prepare for large-scale attacks, but also consider the critical systems that enable them to run their business. This means ensuring that back-ups of critical assets are secure and corporate-approved solutions are in place. To be able to respond quickly to large-scale cyberattacks, companies should consider the industry coordination efforts.
Prepare yourself for a massive riot
It is important to plan ahead during times of increased crime and violence. This means protecting your family's safety and your property. You can also set up a neighborhood watch. This doesn't mean you need to call the cops on random people. It simply means that your neighbours and you must be aware of your surroundings. Access to phones and radios should be provided for neighbourhood watch members so they can communicate with one another. Planned actions should also be taken in case of violence on your streets.
