A technological threat arises as a result of a failure in technology. Any disruptions or problems in the overall systems will lead to a technological crisis.
Technological accidents inevitably occur when technology becomes complex and coupled, and something goes wrong in the system as a whole (Technological breakdowns).
This type of crisis is often directly related to the breakdown of IT systems. The situation, in this case, is handled by the provision of an IT disaster recovery (DR) plan.
Loss of Operating Vessel
In recent years, events such as hazardous substance spills, software failures, industrial accidents, oil spills, machine breakdowns, and corrupted software have given rise to technological crises. Actual examples include the Chernobyl disaster and the Exxon Valdez oil spill.
If your organisation is operating vessels such as a ferry cruise or an aircraft and they fail, this can be classified as a Technological Breakdown.
Some technological crises occur when a human error causes disruptions (Human breakdowns).
People tend to assign blame for a technological disaster because technology is subject to human manipulation, and they do not hold anyone responsible for natural disasters.
The crisis is categorised as mega damage when an accident creates significant environmental damage. be classified as a technological failure.
