Business Continuity Webinar to Compare All Three Standards

July 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Reston, VA – BSI is hosting an important free webinar on July 20, 2010 at 1:00 pm ET to review the three Business Continuity Management (BCM) standards recently adopted by the Department of Homeland Security for the Voluntary Private Sector Preparedness Accreditation and Certification Program (PS-Prep).  
BSI’s Product Manager for the Americas, Robert Whitcher, will provide a brief overview of three standards, BS 25999, NFPA 1600 and ASIS SPC-1, and discuss some of the similarities and differences among BS 25999, NFPA 1600 and ASIS SPC-1.  
Business Continuity Management helps organizations minimize the risks involved in the event of disruption of business.  With a certified BCM plan in place, businesses develop resilience and recovery strategies that protect staff, preserve the organization’s reputation and provide the ability to continue operating during the most challenging and exceptional circumstances.
