ISO 22301 provides a framework to help organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptive or damaging incidents such as cyberattacks, natural disasters, or supply chain failures.
Organizations should become ISO 22301 certified to demonstrate that they can maintain critical operations during crises and minimize downtime. This helps strengthen organizational resilience, protects business reputation, and builds trust with customers and partners.
ISO 22301 became significantly important as customers and federal regulators began to recognize the role of business continuity in mitigating the effects of incidents to an organization. This caused an increase in the adoption of ISO 22301 for businesses to gain assurance that stakeholders and the related functions of an organization have the appropriate business continuity policies and processes designed and implemented, and that those processes are effective.
