September is National Preparedness Month: Is Your Agency Ready?

September marks National Preparedness Month, a time dedicated to ensuring resilience in the face of emergencies; whether natural disasters, cyberattacks, or unexpected disruptions. For government agencies and enterprises, preparedness is not just about having an evacuation plan; it’s about maintaining continuity of operations and protecting critical infrastructure.

At Caddo Technology Group, we work closely with organizations to build robust technology frameworks that keep missions moving when the unexpected happens. Two of our most trusted partners in achieving this resilience are Cisco and HPE (Hewlett Packard Enterprise).

Why Preparedness Requires Strong IT Infrastructure

Modern agencies depend on secure, high-performing networks and reliable computing resources. When systems go down, essential services can grind to a halt. Preparedness means designing an infrastructure that is:
Redundant – so you can failover without downtime
Secure – to withstand cyber threats during chaotic times
Scalable – to adapt as your needs change in an emergency
