Are You Clear on Business Continuity Management Standards?

Gartner® Research Report: How to Ensure Resilience for Your Business Continuity Management Program When Implementing Standards.

Business is turbulent. Supply chain challenges, the long tail of Covid disruptions, worker shortages, global ripples from geopolitical events, rising interest rates, and inflation are weighing on executives’ minds.

This turbulence demands operational resilience; businesses must be prepared for disruptions and ready to respond, recover, and restore as rapidly as possible.

Many standards, guidelines, and best practices are available when implementing a business continuity management (BCM) program. These help organizations deliver consistent, well-considered, and robust BCM processes.

But are business continuity management standards always necessary? How should you approach standards? Which standards? And are there times when standards may not help your organization to recover?

In its report: How to Ensure Resilience for Your Business Continuity Management Program When Implementing Standards, Gartner questions BCM standards and how security and risk professionals can walk the fine line between standards, best practices, and processes that will help your organization.
