The security situation we are in right now is not something we can ignore. Over the past 24 hours, reports have come in of concrete threats to energy infrastructure across the Nordic region. Authorities have gone on alert and vigilance has been raised along the entire chain of critical facilities. <\/p>\n

This is no longer just an issue for energy companies – it’s a reminder to every Swedish business that IT resilience is the foundation of business survival if the unexpected happens.<\/p>\n

The question every management should ask itself today is simple but critical: “How long can we operate if the power goes out now?”<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

More than just batteries in the basement<\/h3>\n

Many people rely on having a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) in place. But for it to provide real peace of mind, it takes more than just hardware: <\/p>\n

– Load test:<\/strong> When was the last time you ran a test under full operational load?
– Critical dependencies:<\/strong> Are network equipment, switches and circuitry secured?
– Sequencing:<\/strong> Is there an automated order for which systems should be prioritized?<\/p>\n

The backup – your last lifeline<\/h3>\n

1. RPO (Recovery Point Objective):<\/strong> How much data can you lose?
2. RTO (Recovery Time Objective):<\/strong> How quickly can you be up and running again?<\/p>\n

3 steps to strengthen preparedness<\/h3>\n

1. Simulate an outage
2. securing the air gap
3. Review the crisis plan<\/p>\n
