ISO 22301

International standard specifying requirements for a business continuity management system (BCMS).

Definition

ISO 22301:2019 defines requirements to plan, establish, implement, operate, monitor, review, maintain, and improve a BCMS. It covers business impact analysis, risk assessment, continuity strategies, plans, and exercises. Organizations can be certified to it.

Example

A payment processor certifies its BCMS to ISO 22301 to satisfy bank partners.

Exam tip

ISO 22301 is the certifiable BCM standard; NIST SP 800-34 is federal contingency guidance.
