🚨 The National Weather Service has issued a Tornado Watch in the District of Columbia until 7PM today, 3/16. A Tornado Watch means that tornadoes are possible in the area. Very strong and dangerous winds may cause downed trees/branches, localized power outages, and damage to homes and buildings. BEFORE A TORNADO: - Secure loose outdoor objects like trash cans, outdoor furniture, and other items that could become dangerous flying debris during a tornado. - Charge your phone and other communication, medical, or assistive devices in case of a power outage. - Identify a safe space to shelter if a Tornado Warning is issued. Visit ready.dc.gov/pages/hazard-t… for more safety tips. DURING A TORNADO: - Go to the nearest sturdy building if you are outside or in a vehicle. - Move to an interior room on the lowest floor if possible. STAY AWAY from windows.

At the Billington Cybersecurity Summit, DC's CISO Suneel Cherukuri shared how 2 DC cyber pros started as interns straight from college. Now they're monitoring threats & responding to incidents expertly — built through DC's apprenticeship programs. #Cybersecurity #TalentGap

Innovation means nothing if it doesn't work for people.💡 OCTO's i-Team placed 12 graduates in apprenticeships across DC agencies in FY25 — and hired 2 full-time into our Security Division. That's the digital divide and the opportunity divide closing at the same time.

99.8% uptime. 24/7/365. 🖥️ OCTO's Network Operations Center keeps DC Government running so residents can call 311, apply for benefits, and access city services — whenever they need to. That reliability isn't a luxury. It's what DC residents deserve. #ThisIsHowWeTech

Reliable communications save lives. 📡🚨 OCTO's DAS upgrades mean first responders' radios work inside buildings & residents can always reach 911. The infrastructure is invisible — until it's needed most. #ThisIsHowWeTech
