Working paper series – latest report released
Digital business requires digital business continuity by Rudy Muls MBCI
The paper relates cyber resilience to its implications to business continuity (BC) practice by referring to the BCM Lifecycle.
His main argument about digital business continuity and the closer collaboration between BC and information security, among other fields, points a way forward to the possible shape of organizational resilience which advocates pulling together ‘protective disciplines’.
