Public Safety and Security
This CFP is looking to mitigate the effects of future, high impact, low frequency events such as pandemics, natural disasters, or other man made or natural disruptive forces. Understanding the impacts and possible preparedness and mitigations of these large scale events will help enhance our resilience in a post-pandemic world. Reducing societal and economic impacts through innovations that bolster the security of critical supply chains, and develop confidence in automation and virtual operations will also support resiliency.
