There are more and more countries defining laws and regulations requiring business continuity compliance. And beyond government interests, private businesses (e.g., financial institutions) are also requiring their suppliers and partners to implement business continuity solutions.

ISO 22301 provides a perfect framework and methodology to support compliance with these requirements – by reducing administrative and operational effort, as well as the number of penalties to be paid. This module enables participants to identify potential cyber threats to an organisation and the impact on business operations. It provides a framework for building organisational resilience with the capability of an effective response that safeguards the interests of its key stakeholders, reputation, brand and value-creating activities.

As part of the learning activity, the class will be broken into groups to tackle simulated disruptions and disasters that could happen to any organisation.

TOPICS COVERED

  • Context of the organisation
  • Leadership
  • Planning
  • Support
  • Operation
  • Performance Evaluation
  • Improvement


This module is part of the Advanced Certificate in Governance, Risk Management and Data Compliance  programme.
