Course Description:

'' This course provides an introduction into the ways organizations ensure they will survive a disaster. We will start by describing the concepts and tools organizations use, and then apply them to government and banking/financial infrastructures. We will take full advantage of recent developments in the dynamic field of crisis management, including lessons learned through the 9-11 hearings.

Banking/finance and government represent two of the 13 critical infrastructure sectors identified in the National Strategy for Homeland Security (July 2002). These two infrastructures—along with the information and telecommunications, energy, transportation, chemical industry, and postal and shipping sectors—make up our economy. We will look at the organizations that form the government and banking/financial infrastructures as

discrete business units (including government units), all of which have survivability as an objective;
parts of a system—links in chains that make up the larger infrastructures; and
partners that recognize the interrelationships and interdependencies that contribute to the survivability of the infrastructure as a whole.
In this course we will identify, examine, and integrate the diverse crisis management, disaster recovery, and organizational continuity issues facing government and the banking/finance sectors, including the following concepts:

disaster/crisis management
business impact analysis
contingency planning
continuity of operations, contingency planning and business resumption planning models, and
risk reduction tools.
Throughout the course, we will emphasize the strategic importance of crisis management, disaster recovery, and organizational continuity to private, not-for-profit and public-sector organizations.
