Impact Of News Reporting On Victims And Survivors Of Traumatic Events When traumatic incidents occur, victims and survivors – as well as their families, friends and immediate communities – respond in varying ways. Over the past century, however, researchers have mapped common psychosocial consequences for victims/survivors in their studies of what has come to be known as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Over the same period, journalists and news media managers have adopted local, medium-specific and industry-wide journalistic standards for acceptable ethical and operational behaviours when it comes to covering such incidents. Yet, despite numerous prescriptive codes – and growing public criticism – Australia’s news media continues to confront victims/ survivors in large numbers when they are at their most vulnerable... and sometimes in ways that are, at best, questionable.

    Cyber Security Planning Guide The below entities collaborated in the creation of this guide. This does not constitute or imply an endorsement by the FCC of any commercial product, service or enterprise of these entities. This guide is not a substitute for consulting trained cyber security professionals. Table of Contents Thank you for using the FCC’s Small Biz Cyber Planner, a tool for small businesses to create customized cyber security planning guides. Businesses large and small need to do more to protect against growing cyber threats. As larger companies take steps to secure their systems, less secure small businesses are easier targets for cyber criminals. This planning guide is designed to meet the specific needs of your company, using the FCC’s customizable Small Biz Cyber Planner tool. The tool is designed for businesses that lack the resources to hire dedicated staff to protect their business, information and customers from cyber threats. Even a business with one computer or one credit card terminal can benefit from this important tool. We generally recommend that businesses using more sophisticated networks with dozens of computers consult a cyber security expert in addition to using the cyber planner. The FCC provides no warranties with respect to the guidance provided by this tool and is not responsible for any harm that might occur as a result of or in spite of its use. The guidance was developed by the FCC with input from public and private sector partners, including the Department of Homeland Security, the National Cyber Security Alliance and The Chamber of Commerce.
