What is Business Continuity Management?

Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a holistic management process that identifies potential threats to an organization and the impacts to business operations those threats might cause. It provides a framework for building organizational resilience with the capability of an effective response that safeguards the interests of its key stakeholders, reputation, brand and value-creating activities. It's commonly used to ensure that businesses can continue operating, or quickly resume operations, after a disruptive event such as a natural disaster, cyberattack, or pandemic.
