Business Continuity Plan (BCP)

A Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is a documented strategy that outlines procedures and instructions an organization must follow in the event of a disruption. It ensures the continuity of critical business functions during and after unexpected incidents such as cyberattacks, natural disasters, or system failures.

The BCP typically includes risk assessments, recovery strategies, communication plans, resource requirements, and roles and responsibilities. It is a core component of operational resilience and is regularly tested and updated.
