Why Should You Attend:
Successful business continuity planning involves the entire organization. It requires clear and consistent communication and encompasses how employees will communicate, where they will go and how they will keep doing their jobs. An effective BCP prepares the organization for disruptive events.
Why is a BCP Important?
Data suggest that 61% of companies surveyed had to invoke their BCP out of which 43% had to invoke it more than once. The key causes were natural disaster, power outage, IT failure, flood, fire, telecom failure, utility outage, and pandemic.
The critical lessons learned from invocation were:
- There had not been enough training and awareness efforts across the company:
- Plans didn’t adequately address emergency communications
- Key staff had not been included in testing; as a result they did not know their roles and responsibilities in the plans:
- Cyber attacks
This training will cover the best practices for implementing and auditing a Business Continuity Plan, doing risk assessment and how to design live BCP, test and maintain it to overcome any internal or external disruptions and threat. The speaker will also discuss various standards from FFIEC to ISO
