Episode 42: Business Continuity Planning Fundamentals
Manage episode 493005539 series 3676011
Business continuity planning (BCP) ensures that critical operations can continue even in the face of major disruptions—and CISOs play a central role in shaping those plans. In this episode, we break down the key components of a business continuity strategy, including business impact analysis (BIA), recovery objectives (RTOs and RPOs), critical systems identification, and continuity playbooks. You’ll learn how to define recovery priorities that are both risk-informed and business-aligned.
We also explore how CISOs coordinate with other departments—such as operations, finance, and facilities—to build cross-functional continuity frameworks that go beyond IT disaster recovery. The CCISO exam will assess your ability to lead or support continuity planning that reflects executive concerns like revenue preservation, customer trust, and regulatory compliance. This episode gives you the tools to design, implement, and maintain a continuity program that keeps the organization operational during its most vulnerable moments.
