| Titre | Planification de la continuité des activités: en regardant en arrière ou à l'avance Business continuity planning: Looking back or ahead |
| Texte | In September 2023, cybercriminals launched an extensive ransomware attack that disrupted several major businesses in the Las Vegas Casino Business/District. The attack shook the city and stopped consumer goods and services for several hours. The attack influenced security, visitor services, and financial activities. Businesses lost money and long-term reputational risks ensued. Increasing op tempo A company can keep running after a disruption if it has a comprehensive Business Continuity Plan (BCP) that includes risk assessments, Business Impact Assessments (BIAs), and recovery strategies. A BCP is needed to minimize risk apprehensions, reduce financial loss, and maintain continuous business operations. A business impact analysis (BIA) must be part of Business Continuity Plans (BCPs). The plan sets recovery time and point goals, ranks the most important processes, and figures out how delays will affect business functions. BIAs help organizations figure out what tools and plans they need for recovery. Disaster Recovery Plans, or DRPs, lay out how a business will handle and rebound from a disaster. It includes tools for recovering systems, data, and infrastructure. A complete, well-tested DRP is necessary to keep problems to a minimum and get services back up and running quickly. To stay safe from cyber threats, businesses need to put their operating security footprint at the top of their list of priorities. In this way, networks, systems, apps, and data are kept safe. Data breaches and unauthorized access are less likely to happen with firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and encryption methods. Rearview The ransomware attack on the Las Vegas Casino Business/District in September 2023 shows that current risk management methods need to be looked at and updated.

Being operationally ready is important for protecting your business and preparing for the unexpected. The most common way for threat players to take over a company\'s resources, assets, and people is through ransomware attacks. Recent statistics show that strong holding the most sought-after security principles can disrupt present business operations: The State of Ransomware Report in the US says that the average ransomware attack costs $8.1 million and takes 287 days to fix (Emsisoft, 2021). The number of ransom payments made by victims rose by 311% in 2020 (Crypto Crime Report, 2021). Going forward Ransomware attacks affect people all over the world, resulting in huge financial losses costs - compiled worldwide topping $20 billion in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has given hackers new avenues and threat vectors to hack, crack, and exploit. It is imperative for businesses to strengthen the home front to gain home-field advantage against cyber threat actors. Having a comprehensive, repeatable, verifiable disaster recovery and business continuity plan minimizes the economic im |
