What is ​business continuity?

Business continuity is the ability of an organization to maintain essential functions during, as well as after, a disaster has occurred. Business continuity planning establishes risk management processes and procedures that aim to prevent interruptions to mission-critical services, and re-establish full function to the organization as quickly and smoothly as possible.
The most basic business continuity requirement is to keep essential functions up and running during a disaster and to recover with as little downtime as possible. A business continuity plan considers various unpredictable events, such as natural disasters, fires, disease outbreaks, cyber-attacks and other external threats.

Data is the life blood of individuals and small businesses alike. For the majority of us, data is a vital part in everything we do. So the real questions is what are you doing to protect this data? A good backup system is a lot like homeowners insurance. You hope you’ll never have to actually use it, but when disaster strikes words will never adequately describe how happy you are that you have it.

A business continuity plan has three key elements: Resilience, recovery and contingency.

• A company can increase resilience by designing critical functions and infrastructures by staffing rotations, data redundancy and maintaining a surplus of capacity.
• Rapid recovery to restore business functions after a disaster is crucial. Setting recovery time objectives for different systems, networks or applications can help prioritize which elements need to be recovered first.
• A contingency plan has procedures in place for a variety of external scenarios and can include a chain of command that distributes responsibilities within the organization.
