In today's rapidly evolving threat landscape, resilience readiness is vital for any organization's ability to respond effectively to a cyber incident. This framework emphasizes proactive policy development, decisive leadership, and robust communication strategies to mitigate risks and ensure business continuity. Evaluate your organization's readiness by identifying gaps in policies, decision-making protocols, and internal and external communication strategies across all phases of incident management—before, during, and after an event.

The PER335 course is a 16-hour in-person class that addresses the vulnerability of any community to a public safety situation, such as an active shooter at a shopping mall; a train derailment with hazardous chemicals; a bombing incident at a commercial district; a plane crash; or chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or explosive attack. These complex coordinated attacks involve multiple threats that often exceed conventional response tactics.
