Business Continuity Policy
Please note: The assignment is to write a Business Continuity Policy NOT a business continuity plan. A business continuity plan is a comprehensive, detailed, production-ready document that describes how an organization would respond in a crisis situation. That is not the scope of this assignment. The assignment here is to develop a policy for business continuity. Therefore, your policy should consider issues such as whether the organization needs to operate continuously through a crisis or if a lag is acceptable before operations continue. If a lag/recovery period is acceptable then how long should it be? Also, consider personnel. Are there certain people that need to be available during a crisis? Are there certain business functions that would not be available? Or departments that must be available?
I attached a similar policy that you can use as an example and the bookÂ
