Description
Summary:Disruptive incidents can affect any organisation and occur at any moment. ICT outages, cyber attacks, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, pandemics, supply chain failures and other unexpected events can all affect productivity and in many cases place a company's survival in serious jeopardy. This book examines the three essential components of validating a business continuity plan - exercising, maintenance and review - and outlines a controlled and systematic approach to BCP validation while considering each component, covering methods and techniques such as table-top reviews, workshops and live rehearsals. It also takes account of industry standards and guidelines to help steer the reader through the validation process, including the international standard ISO 22301 and the Business Continuity Institute's Good Practice Guidelines. A number of case studies based on the author's experience are provided. --
