In the industry, many service providers:

• Equate BCP with DRP (Disaster Recovery Planning)
• Create a BCP to sell DRP hardware and services
• Fail to understand both of the strategic and tactical dimensions of business continuity planning

Our approach is centered on the following principles:

• The BCP should leverage and ultimately enable the organization’s business strategy
• May require DRP as the manifestation of the risk mitigation action, but the BCP is truly business centric (not technology or catastrophe centric)
• Should be created by an objective party with no potential financial gain as a result of selling DRP hardware or software.
• Holistically consider key scenarios that could cause interruption in critical business functions, processes and tasks
• Evaluating risks (probability, impact) and the corporate risk tolerance against mitigation costs and remediation strategies (it is not just about insurance coverage!)

Course Details

The followings are covered in the training course offered by us:
