Third Party Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Programs
Business Continuity is constantly under attack from rising natural disasters, software and hardware failures, escalating and increasing instances of cyberattacks, and all the risks that accompany them. The effects of any one of these events could be devastating. While there is no sure way to avoid certain risks, there are things you can do to protect your business from any potential fallout that may follow.
In this session, we will uncover the business resilience risks that you are inheriting from your third parties and discuss how to create a disaster recovery plan that can address these ever-growing threats.
