We published an infographic that shows how Emergency Communications Centers (ECCs) are using AI to enhance their programs: go.dhs.gov/wAe AI can assist ECCs in navigating staffing shortages, budget constraints, and increased work demands. AI is a tool with the potential to solve some staffing challenges and assist telecommunicators with non-emergent tasks but is not intended to replace the work they perform. While AI-based tools and capabilities have many benefits, incorporating these into operations requires significant evaluation for operability, interoperability, security, and resiliency across systems. SAFECOM and the National Council of Statewide Interoperability Coordinators (NCSWIC) developed the AI in ECCs Infographic to highlight how AI can supplement staffing, enhance situational awareness, and improve delivery of emergency services.

How about them apples? Washington State accounts for 65% of the nation’s apple crop producing 12 billion apples a year. A disruption to that supply chain could have catastrophic effects on global apple supply. Our Region 10 advisors briefed dozens of growers and IT managers from fruit processing companies on cybersecurity and protective security threats, supporting in their defenses against possible attacks.      Learn more about our work in the agriculture industry: https://lnkd.in/gqUCVHZK
