An armed FBI special agent shows up at your facility and tells your ranking
manager to "shut down the Internet".
What do you do when you get home to put it back on the air -- let's say email
as a base service, since it is -- do you have the gear laying around, and how
long would it take?
Do you have out-of-band communications (let's say phone numbers) for enough
remote contacts?
Cheers,
