Our clients will be delighted with this latest release which brings the Business Continuity Solution that much closer to an institutions' need to better manage enterprise-wide risks in an ever increasing outsourced industry," said Bharat Nair, Director of Product and Technology Strategy at WolfPAC.
The BCP module is a risk based online tool that facilitates easy updates to an organization's policies and procedures to support business continuity plan ensuring it is always current. It provides an easy to use and accurate documentation of recovery points, recovery teams, and recovery times for critical business functions to seamlessly restore business operations in which key people, technology, and processes may become unavailable. This will ensure the business minimizes potential losses and remains in compliance with internal and external regulatory mandates.
