Introduction

The standard encompasses all events, risks and incidents that could have an impact on ICT infrastructure and systems. It extends the practices of information security incident handling and management, ICT readiness planning and services. 

ISO IEC 27031 guidance ensures continuous operations of business applications and supporting IT systems. The organization’s business continuity plan is a number of processes and instructions to ensure the continuation of business in the event of an unplanned interruption (terrorism, pandemic outbreaks, fire, explosions, etc.).

Continuity plans are based on risk understanding of business impacts and look to the requirements for resilience, alternative processes, and organizational recovery capability. Continuity plans also cover guidelines, roles and responsibilities, procedures, communication processes, and the testing approach.
