Thought leadership webinar

The road to CPS 230: Bringing resilience to life through scenarios.

Thursday, 27 March | 11am – 12pm AEDT (1pm – 2pm NZDT)

Turning business continuity planning into real-world resilience

Business continuity plans aren’t new to regulated entities, but CPS 230 introduces a significant shift: the requirement to set and measure tolerance levels for operational disruptions. This new standard elevates the importance of scenario testing as a key tool in assessing resilience effectiveness.

How can you build a structured, repeatable approach to scenario testing that strengthens your business continuity program? How do you ensure that your board and regulators have confidence in your resilience strategy?

Join David Tattam, Chief Research & Content Officer, and Michael Howell, Senior Manager, Research & Content, as they explore practical strategies to enhance your scenario and exercising capability. Learn how to identify vulnerabilities, improve response coordination, and protect your stakeholders from real-world disruptions.
