Description
When outages happen, it’s what you do next that matters. It’s important to have a backup plan in place that you can quickly activate to minimize the impact of an incident. Over the past two weeks, companies initiated a range of resiliency actions, including asking customers to use alternate authentication methods (or to avoid logging out of a service), setting up a new contact center to re-establish lines of communication, and reverting to manual processes. Tune in to learn more about what happened during these and other recent incidents.
