The final report into the Nats failure emphasized the need for 34 changes, focusing on improving the command structure and backup systems to prevent recurrence.
The incident highlight was that both the primary and backup systems went into maintenance mode to avoid dangerous information being processed, resulting in complete operational disruption.
