    Terminology in Crisis and Disaster Management CEN Workshop Agreement Georg Neubauer, AIT http://www.ait.ac.at Background . The FP7 project EPISECC develops a concept of a common information space including taxonomy building to improve interoperability between European crisis managers and stakeholders . EPISECC is mandated to provide the outcome of its research to international standardisation – involvement in CEN TC391 . Within the FP7 project DRIVER a standard on terminology in crisis management shall be developed (among multiple other goals) . DRIVER & EPISECC will jointly co-operate on this issue . Additional support is planned from the FP7 projects REDIRNET, SECINCORE and SECTOR (all dealing with interoperability) 2 Scope and Purpose . Provision of an overview of existing terminologies and definitions applied in multiple domains of crisis and disaster management . Overview on synonyms with the same or similar definitions . Overview on different definitions for the same term . Benefit: Support enhancement of mutual understanding of users/organizations applying different standards/taxonomies . Benefit: Potential long term perspective: enhanced use of most suitable terms and definitions arising from multiple sources 3 Scope and Purpose (Example) Domain Term Definition Standard/document Intended Users situation where widespread human, material, economic or environmental losses have occurred which exceeded the ability of the affected organization (2.2.9), community or society to respond and recover using its own resources Societal security disaster ISO 22300 (2012) not specified A serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society involving widespread human, material, economic or environmental losses and impacts, which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own authorities, pratictioners not specified disaster resources.

  • Risk Management in Crisis: Winners and Losers During the COVID-19 Pandemic/Piotr Jedynak and Sylwia Bąk
    Risk Management in Crisis Risk management is a domain of management which comes to the fore in crisis. This book looks at risk management under crisis conditions in the COVID-19 pandemic context. The book synthesizes existing concepts, strategies, approaches and methods of risk management and provides the results of empirical research on risk and risk management during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research outcome was based on the authors’ study on 42 enterprises of different sizes in various sectors, and these firms have either been negatively affected by COVID-19 or have thrived successfully under the new conditions of conducting business activities. The anal- ysis looks at both the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the selected enter- prises and the risk management measures these enterprises had taken in response to the emerging global trends. The book puts together key factors which could have determined the enterprises’ failures and successes. The final part of the book reflects on how firms can build resilience in chal- lenging times and suggests a model for business resilience. The comparative anal- ysis will provide useful insights into key strategic approaches of risk management. Piotr Jedynak is Professor of Management. He works at Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Poland, where he holds the positions of Vice-Rector for Financial and HR Policy and Head of the Management Systems Department. He specializes in risk management, strategic management and management systems. He is the author of numerous publications, an auditor and consultant to many public and business organizations. Sylwia Bąk holds a PhD in Management Sciences.

Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan for Information Security by Vyshnavi Devi Jorrigala A Starred Paper Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Saint Cloud State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree, of Master of Science in Information Assurance December, 2018 Starred Paper Committee: Susantha Herath, Chairperson Dien D. Phan Balasubramanian Kasi 2 Abstract Business continuity planning and Disaster recovery planning are the most crucial elements of a business but are often ignored. Businesses must make a well-structured plan and document for disaster recovery and business continuation, even before a catastrophe occurs. Disasters can be short or may last for a long time, but when an organization is ready for any adversity, it thrives hard and survives. This paper will clearly distinguish the difference between disaster recovery plan and business continuity plan, will describe the components of each plan and finally, will provide an approach that organizations can follow to make better contingency plan so that they will not go out of business when something unexpected happens.
