Business Continuity Management: Organizations today face many potential threats and substantial business disruptions, ranging from natural disasters and technology failures to man-made catastrophes. In order to minimize potential loss, organizations must be able to recover quickly and preserve the continuity of their operations. Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a widely used method of ensuring that operations and services continue in an uninterrupted manner during a disaster or unforeseen turmoil.

BCM requires the development of an adaptable plan taking into account many complimentary elements, such as disaster recovery, business recovery, business resumption and contingency planning. Because business processes are often changing a BCM plan must also be responsive to these changes and adjust to the needs to the business.
