The convergence of telecommunication networks, such as voice, cellular, data, video, Internet, satellite, etc. has created a huge interdependent nodes and links to deliver the services of each of these networks. The failure of any nodes or links of a particular network in a disaster, whether it is a natural or an intentional event, will impair or disrupt services of all associated networks. As a telecommunication service provider, in addition to hardening the buildings and equipment within the buildings, a strategic plan is required to handle the low probability and high impact events. The paper will discuss various approaches to prioritize the tasks to mitigate service disruption and to enhance the network survivability. The financial loss of equipment and building damage is far less than the financial loss of a financial institute without telecommunication service during business hours. The large global companies that have their own networks must evaluate their network integrity from a service provider’s point of view. In this paper the services and equipment that are required to maintain a functioning network will also be discussed. Specific example of telecommunication network disruption on industry will be provided.
