Business Recovery and Disaster Recovery

No matter the size of an organization or its industry, business continuity - or the process by which companies maintain the viability of their business processes in the event of a disruption - is a critical issue facing senior management and corporate boards. Faced with greater scrutiny from regulators, shareholders, and customers, business continuity is an essential element of business operations.

Understanding the impact of risks is the crucial element in the development of a business continuity plan. Armed with this information, an organization can prepare a cost effective business continuity plan as part of a total risk transfer architecture. This would include risk mitigation, insurance, and reacting to an interruption. In this way, an organization can respond to the many events that are outside of the control of the organization - such as natural and manmade disasters, changes in regulations, economic downturns, etc.

While terrorism presents the dramatic interruption danger, companies also face interruptions caused by internal threat and disgruntled employees.
