ISO 22301 Business Continuity Management certification is suitable for all organizations that want to:
- Establish and validate security policies and security strategies from physical, technical, IT, compliance to personnel security.
- Ensure the organization's strategic and tactical capability, preparedness and timely response to incidents and disruptions.
- Effectively assess the risks associated with disruptions to the organisation and analyse the impact to the business, i.e. know what threatens key processes and have adequate measures in place
- Maintain a positive relationship with customers by addressing disruptions to the organisation in a timely manner. This means that the organisation remains able to meet its obligations to them and maintain its credibility.
- Protect assets and people effectively and minimize the need to improvise in crisis situations because a backup plan is already tested and prepared in advance.
