Learn to identify Business Continuity Plan enhancements that will better prepare your organization for a disaster.
Increasing regulatory scrutiny. Escalating threats. Evolving best practices. While the demands on your Business Continuity Plan (BCP) have never been greater, it can be difficult to accurately assess just how effective your BCP really is. This topic examines the entire Business Continuity Planning process to identify critical aspects of a recovery plan that directly impact its effectiveness. The recovery planning concepts reviewed will allow you to differentiate between a recovery plan that will merely satisfy a checklist and one that will truly allow your organization to survive a disaster. Upon completion of this material, you will understand how to evaluate your organization's entire Business Continuity Planning Program - so that you can identify enhancements that should be implemented before a disaster strikes.
