The new standard on the block

For those of us working in risk, business continuity, security and emergency management we knew it was coming...

International Standard ISO 22301 "Societal security - Business continuity management systems - Requirements" has now been issued.

It is the first international standard for business continuity management systems. The standard will allow certification of an organisation's Business Continuity Management System (BCMS). No doubt many organisations will be reviewing the requirements, costs and benefits of implementation in the near future.

PECB appears to provide a good overview of the new standard and a white paper - http://www.pecb.org/iso22301
 
What will ISO 22301:2012 mean for you?
