Continuity
Continuity refers to an organization's ability to maintain essential functions during and after a disruptive event, like a cyberattack or natural disaster. It's the overarching strategy for keeping the business running despite significant challenges.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
Continuity in cybersecurity is the strategic framework encompassing Business Continuity Planning (BCP) and Disaster Recovery (DR) to ensure operational resilience and the uninterrupted delivery of critical business functions during and after an incident, system failure, or cyberattack, guided by Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO).
BACKGROUND
In computer science, a cyberattack is an attack targeted at computer systems. It occurs when there is an unauthorized action against computer infrastructure that compromises the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of its content.
