Assistant Professor of Software Engineering Dr. Ahmed Al-Harithi has outlined key criteria for maintaining digital service continuity during crises.

Speaking in an interview with Al-Ikhbariya Radio, Al-Harithi explained that digital service continuity depends on an organization’s ability to maintain its services during emergencies. This involves preparing for server outages, addressing communication disruptions and cyberattacks, providing temporary service alternatives, and training a dedicated response team.
