The world is preparing for the internet to SHUT DOWN. Yesterday, the UK government urged households to keep 3 days of food, water and cash at home. Among the risks are CYBERATTACKS that could disrupt power, internet access and card payments. And this week showed how quickly that can happen. As news of critical PHP flaws spread, attempts to exploit them climbed into the MILLIONS. Several websites gone dark while they worked to secure them. Now imagine a wider outage affecting several essential services at once. You’re buying groceries, but the checkout can’t process your card. You try withdrawing cash, but the ATM is offline. Your rent is due, but your banking app won’t load. You need medication, but the pharmacy can’t access your prescription. You arrive for surgery, but the hospital’s systems are down. You’re stranded at the airport because your airline can’t check you in. You log in for work, but your company’s systems are locked. You try calling your family, but the mobile network is down. These are ALL possible consequences of major outages. Your own phone or laptop doesn’t have to be hacked for you to feel the impact. The services you depend on just have to stop working. Prepare while everything still works.
