ISO 22301 Certification

ISO 22301 CERTIFICATION

Say Affirmative to compliance through ISO 22301!
ISO 22301

What is ISO 22301 Certification?

ISO 22301 Certification is an internationally recognized standard that verifies that an organization has implemented a business continuity management system (BCMS) that meets the requirements of the standard.

A BCMS is a framework that helps organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptive incidents.

Benefits of  ISO 22301 Certification?

  • Increased Resilience: Organizations that are ISO 22301 certified are better able to withstand disruptive events, such as natural disasters, cyberattacks, and power outages.
  • Reduced Risk: By identifying and mitigating potential threats, organizations can reduce the likelihood of disruptions occurring.
  • Improved Reputation: ISO 22301 certification demonstrates an organization’s commitment to business continuity, which can improve its reputation with customers, suppliers, and investors.
  • Enhanced Operational Efficiency: A BCMS can help organizations to identify and eliminate inefficiencies in their operations.
  • Reduced Costs: By preventing disruptions and recovering from them more quickly, organizations can save money.

Our Approach

1. Develop and Implement a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS):

  • Identifying Critical Business Processes: Analyzing your organization's operations and pinpoint processes crucial for maintaining essential functions.
  • Assessing Risks and Threats: Conducting risk assessments to identify potential disruptions like cyberattacks, natural disasters, or power outages.
  • Developing Recovery Plans: Establishing detailed plans outlining actions to minimize downtime and restore critical processes after an incident.
  • Implementing your BCMS: Integrating your plans into daily operations, training employees on their roles, and ensuring resources are readily available.
  • Continuously Improve: Conducting regular reviews and audits to identify areas for improvement and enhance your BCMS effectiveness.

2. Internal Audits and Management Review:

  • Self-Assessing: Conducting internal audits to evaluate your BCMS compliance with ISO 22301 requirements, identifying gaps and areas needing improvement.
  • Management Review: Holding a formal review with top management to assess the BCMS performance, address findings from internal audits, and approve any necessary corrective actions.

3. Certification Audit:

The certification body will conduct a two-stage audit:

    • Stage 1: Assessing your documentation, understanding of the standard, and overall BCMS implementation.
    • Stage 2: Verifying your plan implementation, employee training, and response preparedness through interviews, document reviews, and simulations.

4. Certification Decision and Maintenance:

  • Upon successful completion of the audit, the certification body will issue an ISO 22301 certificate, valid for three years.
  • Maintain your certification through annual surveillance audits to ensure continued compliance and improvement.

BCMS Current State Assessment

A BCMS (Business Continuity Management System) Current State Assessment is a process of evaluating an organization's existing business continuity practices, policies, and capabilities. This assessment involves reviewing documentation, conducting interviews, and analyzing processes to identify strengths, weaknesses, gaps, and areas for improvement in the organization's ability to manage and respond to disruptions. The goal is to assess the organization's current level of readiness and resilience and develop strategies to enhance its business continuity capabilities.

Business Impact Analysis

A business impact analysis (BIA) is a systematic process used by organizations to evaluate and prioritize the potential impacts of disruptions to their operations. It involves identifying critical business functions, determining the impact of disruptions on these functions, and assessing the financial and operational consequences of such disruptions. The goal of a BIA is to help organizations develop strategies for mitigating risks, improving resilience, and ensuring continuity of operations during adverse events such as natural disasters, cyberattacks, or other emergencies.

Business Continuity testing and Disaster Recovery Tests

Business continuity testing ensures that plans and procedures for maintaining critical operations during disruptions are effective. It includes tabletop exercises, simulations, and parallel testing to identify gaps and improve response capabilities.Disaster recovery tests focus on verifying the functionality of recovery procedures and systems for restoring IT infrastructure and data after a disruptive event. They include plan reviews, technical testing, and full-scale simulations to minimize downtime and validate readiness for recovery.

Strategy and Plan Development

Strategy and plan development is about defining clear goals, analyzing factors, developing aligned strategies, creating actionable plans, implementing, monitoring progress, and adjusting for continuous improvement. This process involves collaboration, clear communication, and flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances. It aims to optimize resources, enhance decision-making, and achieve sustainable growth and success for the organization. Effective strategy and plan development are key pillars of strategic management and organizational resilience.

Information Backup and Recovery Testing

Information backup and recovery testing ensures data safety by regularly testing backup systems for data integrity and quick recovery within set timeframes. Thorough documentation, training, and reporting are vital for maintaining data resilience and compliance. This testing is essential for minimizing data loss and ensuring business continuity in the event of hardware failures, cyberattacks, or other disruptions. It helps identify weaknesses in backup procedures and allows for adjustments to improve overall data protection strategies.
