With 2FA your phone becomes an important factor in data protection. How #SIM-jacking works: A hacker decides you are worth attacking.

Calamity:

A calamity mostly arises from an incident of external origin that expands across multiple hardware systems, software systems or even employees. These incidents include:

Fire
Economic boycotts
Epidemics
Hacking
Floods
Sabotage
Software errors
Storm damages
Failing software updates

Of course a failure can result in a calamity. For example, a server that is running too hot for a long time and reports "overheating" as a failure can eventually result in a calamity such as a fire.

Failure:

Briefly formulated a failure is a confined problem that relates to one program or one hardware component. Solutions for failures are mostly found in redundancy and high availability systems ( HA )
