What is Business Continuity? It doesn't sound exciting, and it sounds like quite a bit of work. Both true.

But here's the thing: business continuity isn't about excitement, it's about resilience. It's about making sure your organization can keep operating when the unexpected happens. Think loss of a key vendor or system, or think cyberattack, or think loss of key personnel.

BONUS POINTS: Your plan receives regular updates. Your organization practices its plans through tabletop exercises.
