As technology-related incidents continue to impact business operations across the globe, understanding how to protect against cybersecurity attacks and other threats to business operations is becoming increasingly critical. This paper discusses the top business continuity and information security trends and how companies can mitigate risk.
Based on a survey conducted by the Business Continuity Institute, respondents identified cyberattacks, loss of key employees, influence of social media, increased regulatory scrutiny, and adoption of internet-dependent services as their top concerns. Operating within the Canadian financial market with a strong regulatory framework, CIBC Mellon understands these challenges and it implements robust business continuity and information security measures and controls. We also offer some tips and techniques that any organization can consider when looking to improve their business continuity management tactics.
