I would expect any bank to invest highly in emergency management and disaster recovery. With banking being done electronically, having a failing computer system would mean massive problems for the banks and its customers. This could be natural disasters, fire, water leaks, intruders, hardware failure, etc. Some employees will have a vital part in emergency management and disaster recovery. Supplying these employees with everything they need to do their job and life where ever they are need is a part of that. You can’t fix everything remotely and having backup remotely does not solve every problem.

So the fed looking for an Emergency Preparedness Specialist does not surprise me. Although a temporary job status does.
