DRJ Webinar: Vendor Contingency Planning – Bringing It All Together
Vendors today are a regular part of your business, intermingled with daily operations of almost every department and process. Because of regulations, industry standards and recommendations from agencies like the FFIEC, ISO 22301, and ISACA, companies are paying more attention to assessing the risk of vendors (and your vendor’s vendors). But is assessing the risk enough? Who in your organization is responsible for bringing it all together? Conducting a BIA and identifying where the functions and vendors are the most critical, identifying who and what exactly is impacted and actually coming up with a documented plan to continue operations without the service/product they provide? Businesses today typically have Business Continuity Plans, Disaster Recovery Plans and Crisis Management Plans but do you have specific plans in place for a critical vendor outage?
