Now that the GSA is getting being the effort to move .GOV to .CLOUD it should not be lost on those of in Public Safety that everyone of these Cloud Co that these GOV is going too are bragging about how safe and secure they are in their business plans and public materials.
Well! IMHO if not for the effort of local emergency management agencies coordinating a response these super cloud center are sitting ducks and no better off then any other business or individual.
The devastation we saw in Haiti or Japan and New Orleans in less then 24 hours is all the proof anyone needs to see the seriousness of this matter.
Indeed with plans under way for the New Madrid National Exercise 11. What say those working on this as to how they respond when a whole town disappears or the local grid goes down and responders are grasping for information.

We know that the citizens will be using Twitter, Facebook and SMS to cry out for help. And with all of these consumer provider using the cloud they are scalable, on demand no phone calls in middle of night for NET ops personal or not enough hardware available or more circuits need to be turned on. Again because they are on the CLOUD. It seems the only folks not on the Cloud are Emergency Responders.
To rectify this we need all of the "Cloud Service Providers" CSP to join in a national task force to design/build and promulgate a Public Safety Cloud. This service is analogous to the TV Broadcaster and their responsibility to air Public Service Messages. We have no choice about going to the Cloud and it needs to be done sooner then latter.
Please discuss...........
