If I Can Do It on an Ambulance, You Can Do It in an Office: Scalable Incident Response Using ICS

Thursday, March 23, 2023 - 1:55 pm2:40 pm

Thai Wood, Resilience Roundup

Abstract: 

I'll outline what my experience, managing physical emergencies in an ambulance and ER, taught me about responding to incidents starting with a small team and how it can be grown and scaled up and perhaps more importantly scaled back down, based on the Incident Command System (ICS) framework. I'll cover approaches regardless of whether or not you already have an incident response plan.
