In times heightened volatility, strategic foresight is key but navigating the complexities of divisive election campaigns is no small feat. 

From localized disruptions like city block closures during small gatherings, to the broader impact of military coups on entire nations – there are many challenges. It's imperative for companies to proactively prepare for these scenarios, developing robust plans to safeguard operations and ensure the well-being of their people.

#SecurityAwareness #CyberRisk

The Rainbow Bridge explosion this week left many on high alert. What had happened was initially very unclear and difficult to decipher and many were concerned about the potential of a targeted attack. 

Many official sources, including the local media and traffic sources initially inaccurately reported the incident as a vehicle fire and/or crash. 

Just four minutes after the first mention of an incident on social media, however, samdesk analysts were able to accurately alert to an explosion and closure of the area. This speaks to the advantage of an AI-powered, human-backed approach to crisis detection and monitoring.

When an emergency or disruption occurs, DoorDash notifies Dashers who are actively on a delivery of any incidents, so they can stay out of harm’s way.
