The British Standards Institute (BSI), in conjunction with the Business Continuity Institute, (BCI) has just published a guide which clearly establishes the process, principles and terminology of business continuity management (BCM).
The new guidance describes the activities and outcomes involved in establishing a BCM process and provides recommendations for good practice. It provides a generic BCM framework for incident anticipation and response and describes evaluation techniques and criteria.
