Business Continuity is essential to create and validate a practiced logistical plan for how an organisation will recover and restore partially or completely interrupted critical function(s) within a predetermined time after a disaster or extended disruption.

Put simply, an organisation needs to prepare for future incidents that could jeopardise the organization's core mission and its longterm health. In this process, improving information security and corporate reputation risk management practices is crucial.

In December 2006, the British Standards Institute released a new independent standard for Business Continuity Planning - BS 25999. This standard extends to organizations of all types, sizes, and missions whether governmental or private, profit or non-profit, large or small, or industry sector.

In 2004, the United Kingdom enacted the Civil Contingencies Act, a statute that instructs all emergency services and local authorities to actively prepare and plan for emergencies. Local authorities also have the legal obligation under this act to actively lead promotion of business continuity practices amongst its geographical area.
