Business Continuity Plan (BCP) Testing
Business Continuity Plan (BCP) Testing : "Exercise/test requirements should be documented either inside the plan itself or in the entity-level BCM policy. Most of the standards used to govern BCM programs require three basic elements of a testing regime: (1) Tests must be held at periodic intervals. The actual period between the events is determined by the BCM Steering Committee and is based on the program goals and objectives. (2) Tests should address a variety of threats/scenarios and different elements within the BCM program. It is possible to address these issues in a series of broadly-based annual exercises or through more targeted site or component-level testing. (3) There must be some method to track issues and gaps uncovered in the test and track their resolution". (IIA, Business Continuity Management, 2008, p. 15)
