business continuity planning
What is business continuity planning?
Critical services or products are those that must be delivered to
ensure survival, avoid causing injury, and meet legal or other obligations of
an organization. Business Continuity Planning is a proactive planning process
that ensures critical services or products are delivered during a disruption.
A Business Continuity Plan includes:
§ Plans, measures and arrangements to ensure the continuous delivery
of critical services and products, which permits the organization to recover
its facility, data and assets.
§ Identification of necessary resources to support business
continuity, including personnel, information, equipment, financial allocations,
legal counsel, infrastructure protection and accommodations.
Having a BCP enhances an organization's image with employees,
shareholders and customers by demonstrating a proactive attitude. Additional
benefits include improvement in overall organizational efficiency and
identifying the relationship of assets and human and financial resources to
critical services and deliverables.
Why is business continuity planning important
Every organization is at risk from potential disasters that
include:
§ Natural disasters such as tornadoes, floods, blizzards, earthquakes
and fire
§ Accidents
§ Sabotage
§ Power and energy disruptions
§ Communications, transportation, safety and service sector failure
§ Environmental disasters such as pollution and hazardous materials
spills
§ Cyber attacks and hacker activity.
Creating and maintaining a BCP helps ensure that an institution
has the resources and information needed to deal with these emergencies.
