When there is a natural disaster or catastrophic event... who ensures responsibility for recovery or who should? The City, State or Local government, the National Guard, FEMA, non-profits, private businesses, the people, etc., or maybe all of the above. Government emergency operations and disaster relief has been a long standing practice, but what about for "Cyber" Attack or "Cyber" disaster? With Hollywood movies and TV Shows like Mr. Robot, more people are starting to wonder, what would happen... or hopefully what is in place if "something" would happen? In this talk we will go into the history of Local and State Government involvement in Emergency Operations of a catastrophic Cyber Attack. We will also touch on the deep depths of "Cyber" Martial Law.
