FEMA IS-906 - Workplace (aka Responder Location) Security Awareness

Threats endanger the confidentiality, integrity, and security of your 'Responder Location', as well as your virtual workplace and computer systems.

'Responders' are often the target of these threats as well as the organization's first line of defense against them.

As a 'Responder', you are an integral part of your organization’s security solution. From the mailroom to the boardroom, security is a shared responsibility. Simply put, security begins with you!

per JSO:

For the sake of overlaying a crisis circumstance over these standards, in some cases I have substituted the words "employee" and "workplace" with 'Responder' and 'Responder Location' respectively.  The word "Company" may be substituted with Community.  This risk landscape and management values seems to hold up, if not be exacerbated, in emergent crisis environments.

"Security Begins With You

We live in a world of ever-increasing risk. No workplace – be it a construction site, office building, factory floor, or retail store – is immune from these threats. Risks threaten worker safety, employee morale, and your company’s economic livelihood.

Some threats are intentional acts, such as sabotage and violence. Others are caused by natural disasters or manmade accidents. No matter the threat, all employees have a responsibility to help their company protect its employees, information, data, and facilities.

Employees are often the target of these threats as well as the organization's first line of defense against them. Threats endanger the confidentiality, integrity, and security of your workplace, as well as your virtual workplace and computer systems.

As an employee, you are an integral part of your organization’s security solution. From the mailroom to the boardroom, security is a shared responsibility. Simply put, security begins with you!

Upon completion, discuss ways you can reduce event exposure and describe specific things you can do to contribute."
