Business Continuity FAQ
What is the difference between Disaster Recovery (DR) and Business Continuity (BC)?
Disaster Recovery focuses specifically on restoring technical IT infrastructure and data after an incident. Business Continuity addresses keeping the entire business operating (people, facilities, communications, and vendors) during the outage.
What are RTO and RPO?
Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is the maximum acceptable duration of system downtime. Recovery Point Objective (RPO) is the maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time.
How does a vCISO support our Business Continuity Plan?
A Virtual CISO provides senior leadership during crisis planning, oversees Business Impact Analyses, leads board reporting, and ensures your recovery strategy satisfies cyber insurance requirements.
