Ready Communication aligns with official governmental guidelines to help organizations prepare for the unexpected and build resilient communication infrastructure that protects against operational disruptions.

Oslo, 15.10.2025.
As geopolitical tensions rise and extreme weather events increasingly threaten the stability of infrastructure, many organizations find themselves unprepared for communication disruptions. The Norwegian Directorate for Civil Protection (DSB) has issued clear guidance emphasizing that organizational preparedness is not only crucial from an economic and operational perspective, but essential for societal resilience as a whole.

At Ready Communication, we take this responsibility seriously and have designed our solutions to directly address these challenges, ensuring that organizations can maintain connectivity regardless of the situation.

The Risk of Unpreparedness

Most individuals maintain some level of personal preparedness, yet organizational readiness is lagging behind. When crisis situations emerge; whether from infrastructure failures, natural disasters, or other disruptions—organizations without a plan B could face operational disruptions.

DSB's guidance on organizational preparedness highlights a fundamental principle: weak links in any chain increase risk across the entire network. Organizations serve customers, partners, and communities. When communication systems fail without backup solutions in place, the impact cascates beyond the individual organization, affecting everyone who depends on their services and deliverables.

Aligning with Official Guidelines

The DSB's comprehensive guide "Råd om egenberedskap for virksomheter" (Advice on Organizational Preparedness for Businesses) outlines five critical areas that every organization should address. Ready Communication's solutions are specifically designed to support these principles:

1. Map Critical Areas

Organizations must identify their most critical activities and dependencies. Communication infrastructure consistently ranks among the top dependencies—without reliable connectivity, operations grind to a halt. Our solutions help organizations ensure that this critical dependency has robust backup systems in place.

2. Assess Consequences of Disruptions

Communication outages can result in severe economic losses, reputational damage, and potentially life-threatening situations for organizations in critical sectors. Ready Communication provides the redundancy needed to maintain operations when traditional infrastructure fails, minimizing these consequences.

3. Understand Dependencies

Most organizations rely on external providers for connectivity, whether mobile networks or fixed broadband. This creates a single point of failure. Our satellite-based and dual-network solutions like Garm and Fenrisulfr provide independent connectivity that doesn't rely on terrestrial infrastructure, eliminating this vulnerability.

4. Implement Safeguarding Measures

Preparedness requires both preventive and recovery-oriented measures. Our solutions offer immediate deployment capabilities—operational within minutes—providing the redundancy and failover capacity organizations need to ensure continuity during disruptions.

5. Plan for Recovery and Normalization

Beyond immediate crisis response, organizations need pathways back to normal operations. Reliable backup communication enables coordination, information sharing, and decision-making throughout the recovery process.

Mission-Critical Communication Solutions

Ready Communication delivers robust, mobile communication platforms that operate independently of traditional infrastructure. Our solutions combine satellite connectivity with cellular technology, automatically switching between networks to maintain continuous operation.

Key capabilities include:

• Infrastructure Independence: Satellite-based connectivity that functions when terrestrial networks fail
• Rapid Deployment: Minimal setup required, single on/off switch or connect power and you're ready to go
• Global Coverage: Connectivity virtually anywhere, regardless of existing infrastructure
• Seamless Integration: Works with existing IT systems and communication tools
• Scalable Solutions: From portable units like Garm to more comprehensive systems like Fenrisulfr

Proven in Critical Operations

Our solutions are already deployed by emergency services, rescue organizations, and critical infrastructure operators across Norway. Organizations like Sarpsborg Brannvesen and Østfold Røde Kors rely on our technology to maintain communication capability during emergencies and major events when traditional networks become congested or fail.

These real-world deployments validate our approach: when communication is critical, organizations need more than promises—they need proven, reliable systems that work when it matters most.

Building Societal Resilience

The DSB guidelines emphasize that organizational preparedness contributes to national resilience. Every organization that implements robust backup communication systems strengthens the entire societal fabric. This is particularly important for organizations providing critical services or supporting essential supply chains.

Ready Communication's alignment with governmental goals and public sector guidelines reflects our commitment to not only serve individual organizations but to contribute to broader societal preparedness and resilience.

Taking Action

The question facing every organization is not whether a disruption will occur, but when. Organizations that have prepared will maintain operations, serve their customers, and fulfill their obligations. Those without contingency plans will face unnecessary risk and potentially severe consequences.

We encourage all organizations to review the DSB guidelines and assess their current communication resilience. For many, the realization that they lack adequate backup systems is the first step toward meaningful risk reduction.

Ready Communication is committed to keeping organizations connected regardless of the situation, enabling them to focus on their core mission rather than struggling with communication challenges during critical moments.
