Why do Business Continuity Management?
Discussion exploring the benefits of BCM confirmed by a number of sources including this year’s UK survey on BCM adoption by the CMI, which is co-sponsored by the BCI. It will also look at the reasons organisations give for not doing BCM and profile those that choose not to. The presentation will introduce a new concept of ‘informal’ BCM and will seek to characterise the tipping point that makes firms formalise their BCM thinking. The session will then debate strategies for increasing the adoption of BCM.

GDPR : A Threat or An Opportunity? Recorded: Apr 19 2018 61 mins
Pradeep PrasadThe world has moved in the last 100 years from the first flight into the sky to flights to Mars; there is complete digital control over our lives. Control is by the person or entity who has retrievable custody of our data which can be misused for gains and / or to harm us. What was most prevalent form of societal intimacy during our childhood in 1960s and 1970s, that everything was known about everyone in a neighbourhood; we have come a long way. We are at a stage where we ask - why do you need to know about me? If there is a need with an agreed upon purpose, only sufficient data is provided which satisfies the need with a caveat that the data would not be used for any other purpose.
European Union (EU) has done a commendable job 2 decades back — to protect its citizens from prying eyes, whether harmful or not — through replace the 1995 Data Protection Directive. In parallel, government of India also took commendable steps in this direction through InfoTech Act 2000, which was amended in 2008 with additional safeguards. Though India InfoTech Act is a general purpose all-compassing act, it has sections to protect data privacy strengthened further in 2011. However, both EU GDPR and India InfoTech Act can leverage each other for mutual benefits.
In this Webinar, Pradeep will share various aspects of GDPR and the diversified thoughts looking GDPR as a threat or an opportunity. -

Supply Chain Resiliency Recorded: Feb 24 2018 61 mins
Arghajit Adhicary, Global BCM Manager - UnisyBusinesses are increasingly becoming more reliant on third parties for critical products and services. The factors are multi-fold : increased customer demand, time criticality, stringent service levels, evolving regulatory landscapes, technological advancements, mergers and acquisitions, diversification of risks, etc. With increasing dependencies on third parties, organizations become susceptible to major service disruptions owing to lack of supplier resilience; thus, running into risks such as loss of revenues, regulatory breaches, service level misses and eventually, loss of customer confidence. Supply Chain Resiliency is the key to sustained business model and must be integrated within the resilience or business continuity framework of organizations.
This session will reflect upon a few key trends, levers, risks, regulatory requirements and overview of building third party business continuity assessment process. -

Business Continuity Management in an international travel group Recorded: Sep 29 2017 39 mins
Wolfgang MahrBusiness Continuity Management in an international travel group: when holiday paradise turns into a disaster site.
Business Continuity Management (BCM) protects organizations from the impacts of business disruptions. Threats may originate from various origins and may hit an organization without their fault. Effective protection is achieved by following established methodologies such as the BCI Good Practice Guidelines and/or international standards – providing a predetermined level of operation during a crisis.
Within the tourism industry, much higher requirements prevail: on top of the classic requirement to protect the organization, it has the responsibility to care for the wellbeing of their travelling customers. The focus in on those travelers who already being on their journey. These requirements dictate that two intertwined projects need to be realized, significantly increasing the complexity of the BCM approach. -
It’s Not Either Or … It’s Both & More Recorded: Sep 28 2017 45 mins
Martin Fenlon MBCIYou cannot see in total light or total darkness; there will always be shades of grey. This webinar will explore the relationship between business continuity and organisational resilience by addressing key issues such as:
-At what level of authority and influence in the organisation (if any) is there oversight of all the resilience activities so that synergies can be exploited, unnecessary redundancies eliminated and duplication avoided?
-How and how often do the managers of these disciplines talk to each other about the combined contribution of their separate programmes that support organisational resilience?
-How is the personal resilience of individuals being developed so they will be able to perform their roles and responsibilities in the event of a disruption?
-What value does the validation phase (exercising and audit) add to resilience programmes?
This webinar will provide an overview of the business continuity life cycle and suggest the needs to integrate this capability with wider organisation resilience activities. This supports a cyclical and ongoing discipline consistent with our understanding of organisational resilience as an evolution, not a “fix”. -

Once bitten Twice Shy – (Maybe)! Recorded: Sep 26 2017 31 mins
Mark Penberthy FBCIOne would think that catastrophic incidents of global proportions would cause organizations globally to exercise extra vigilance in ensuring that these events do not recur, particularly in their proverbial back yards!
Surprisingly, as we continue to analyze events which have caused untold damage and disruption to organizations, we have to ask ourselves; are they becoming less frequent and why do we seem to see history repeating itself? -

Out with the old, in with the new: changing perceptions of Business Continuity. Recorded: Sep 22 2017 39 mins
Chris Rhodes (Senior Consultant, PlanB Consulting) and Gordon Brown (Senior Consultant, PlanB Consulting)Chris and Gordon argue that a lasting tendency to focus on outdated or improbable threats, risks alienating millennials and may even de-value the BC profession in the future. Take, for example, loss of staff due to a winning lottery syndicate, or even the ever-prominent focus on loss of premises. Whilst we cannot rule out any eventuality, is this really the kind of subject matter that will excite prospective millennial BC professionals?
Talking from their own experience and looking at the 2017 BCI Horizon Scan Report, they discuss the current threat landscape, arguing that with growing digitalisation and increased cyber risks, never before has there been such exciting prospects for young people in BC. -
The “Good” BIA Recorded: Sep 20 2017 49 mins
Kathleen Lucey FBCIThis webinar will enter the current “BIA Controversy” with a description of what works….and what doesn’t.
I learned in 1991 what makes a BIA “not work” when my team and I had to deal with a BIA report that had covered all sites of a global firm.. Key characteristics: it took over 2 years to complete and had cost nearly half a million dollars, did not provide a basis for building a plan, and much of the information was out of date. So I made a few common-sense process changes that made all the difference in going forward to complete useful plans in a reasonable time-frame. -
Third Party Dependencies and semolina Recorded: Sep 20 2017 45 mins
Martin Caddick FBCIThis session is about thinking and planning outside your own organization boundaries as well as inside.
I will use the ‘Great semolina disaster of Yarmouth’ as a case study, looking at what you might reasonably be expected to foresee, and why sharing plans is a good thing. I will also look at some case studies that changed the focus of regulators, who have become increasingly concerned about interdependencies between organizations.
I will then look at what needs to be done to make sure you are working in the right way with the right third parties. -
How to Improve BC/DR Programs by Auditing Recorded: Sep 19 2017 49 mins
Paul Kirvan FBCIThis webinar discusses how to leverage auditing skills, particularly IT auditing, to improve BC and DR programs. We will discuss how to design BC/DR controls, examine and analyze them in existing BC/DR programs, and prepare work papers that summarize the audit results.

We will refer to ISO 22301:2012 and ISO 27031:2011, as well as the BCI’s Good Practice Guidelines, in the course of the presentation. -
Why is cyber-attack not a security issue? Recorded: Sep 19 2017 45 mins
Saul Midler FBCIWe live in a world of uncertainty. The BCI Horizon Scan Report 2017 provides clear confirmation that organisations are being disrupted and there are a range of threats that are of great concern.
Cyber-attack is the top concern and while considerable effort goes into reducing cyber threat, an actual attack is not a security issue.
This presentation will help you understand the difference between Business Continuity and Information Security and their role before and after an attack. -
BCI Horizon Scan Report 2017 Recorded: Sep 18 2017 25 mins
Gianluca Riglietti CBCIThe BCI Horizon Scan has become a vital resource to those working in the fields of business continuity, risk or resilience, and as such it is getting a greater number of respondents from a wider range of countries and industries. The 2017 Horizon Scan Report showed that once again it was cyber attack that was the number one threat, with data breaches remaining in second place and network outages third. Adverse weather moved up three places to enter the top five along with security incident.
