INVESTMENT X IsDB’s investment in developing its BCM strategy is crucial to enabling IsDB to continue its operations in the event of a major incident and ensure, as far as practicable, that critical processes and resources are recovered before their non- performance threatens the long-term security of IsDB. The aim is to: – Maintain the reputation and credibility of the organisation – Complement the IsDB Group Risk Management Framework by identifying and planning for high- impact scenarios where BCM is the appropriate risk mitigation strategy – Provide a framework of management and decision making that will result in an agreed recovery programme that will minimise the impact of the event.
