Business Continuity Planning (BCP): The process of creating systems of prevention and recovery to deal with potential threats to an organization. BCP involves identifying critical business processes, determining acceptable downtime for each of these, and establishing protocols to restore function quickly and efficiently after a disruption. The end result of this process is a Business Continuity Plan – a comprehensive written document that guides an organization in responding to and recovering from disruptive incidents.
