We've been hacked! Now what's our Business Continuity Plan (BCP)?

Practical session with excellent take-home value:

• The 'good, bad and ugly' of responses to recent real-life Cyber Security incidents
• Information Security according to ISO 27001: Quick 'essentials'/overview
• Why Business Continuity Planning (BCP) is important in the context of Cyber risk, and how to integrate Cyber Security into your BCP
• Assignment in sub-groups: Prepare to run a cyber simulation/exercise, including development of a scenario and facilitation of a hands-on rehearsal, using a complimentary Cyber Exercise planning template.

Information Security Management often concentrates on preventative controls and immediate responses, as opposed to Business Continuity Planning (BCP), which ensures that there are plans and procedures in place on how to continue the core, time-critical processes of an organisation... thereby ensuring that the brand/reputation are safeguarded, as key services continue to be delivered. BCP is becoming increasingly relevant, as we have been seeing larger Information Security threats eventuate, and an increasingly competitive market where customers easily switch brands if your product/service is unavailable or your brand 'tainted' by a data breach.

Rinske (flying in from Sydney) will provide an overview of ISO 27001 (Information Security), share her best practice world-class BCP framework, and demonstrate how Cyber Security should be integrated into the BCP to optimally manage both aspects. The practical part of this session will include using her company’s scenario planning template to build a rehearsal approach and script for your next Cyber Rehearsal. This will be conducted in sub groups.
