A Mini Literature Review on Integrating Cybersecurity for Business Continuity

Governments, organizations, and companies shall implement some measures to ensure the security and continuity of their business operations especially those with high criticality and availability. If cyber threats can bring down a company for a long time and create reputational impacts which cause painful financial losses of hundreds of thousands or millions of Saudi riyals and significant disruptions to business operations, then we should think of business continuity. As a result, as organizations build their business continuity and disaster recovery plans and procedures, cybersecurity measures must be integrated throughout the entire process. This paper focuses on falling the gaps between cybersecurity and business continuity and integrating them in order to establish resilience systems and enable organizations to ensure that the proper processes are being put in place and resources are allocated to help facilitate a smooth transition as they recover from cyber incidents.
