 epidemics, intentional wrongdoing, cyber-security incidents, power losses, telecommunications failures or similar events. As a geolocation services provider, there is an increased risk that our technological infrastructure may be targeted in connection with terrorism or cyberattacks, either as a primary target, or as a means of facilitating additional attacks on other targets.

We are increasingly dependent on information technology systems and infrastructure to operate our business, so any such or similar events could materially disrupt our business operations or our provision of service in one or more markets. Costs we incur to restore, repair or replace our network or technical infrastructure, as well as costs associated with detecting, monitoring or reducing the incidence of unauthorized use, may be substantial and increase our cost of providing service. In addition, any of the aforementioned risks or events may be augmented if our business continuity and disaster recovery plans, or those of our supply chain, prove to be inadequate. If any of the above or similar events were to occur, we could experience an adverse impact to our business, financial condition and/or results of operations. Additionally, if applicable to any such events, our insurance may not be adequate to cover the costs associated. We also rely on third-party providers for certain of our infrastructure, any of which could also be subject to any such events, which could also have an adverse effect on our business.

As a result, a number of third parties may or could have access to our information technology systems (including our computer networks) or to our confidential information. In addition, many of those third parties in turn subcontract or outsource some of their responsibilities to third parties. As a result, our information technology systems, including the functions of third parties that are involved or have access to those systems, is large and complex. While all information technology operations are inherently vulnerable to inadvertent or intentional security breaches, incidents, attacks
