To speed up disaster relief, restoring communications should be a priority

September 4, 2019

Natural disasters like Hurricane Dorian are increasing in severity and frequency. Dorian reminds us yet again of the need for us all to be prepared for the worst. When a disaster of this magnitude strikes, it often knocks out the power grid and communications infrastructure. Without the ability to communicate, everything suffers: relief coordination efforts, medical evacuations, and the resupply of food and water. To speed up disaster relief, it is imperative that we make restoring communications a priority.

Technology developers must strike a balance between an interface that is visually appealing and one that’s functional. A user interface is a gateway — it’s a visual path to information or functionality that results in an experience. Warfighters need a clear and concise interface to give them clear and concise direction that isn’t cluttered by unnecessary options.

The Security Triad
Many sources equate secure communications to encryption. While encryption certainly plays a key role in a secure communications solution, it is not the only required element. The cybersecurity industry uses a model referred to as the security triad to define the various domains that need to be addressed when securing a network. The triad – sometimes also known as CIA – includes Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. This paper will review and define these domains for a better understanding of what is required to provide a complete secure communications solution.
