Abstract
The paper introduces a benchmarking approach for business and IT continuity. Multiple use cases of the benchmark are presented enabling organizations of varying sizes and sectors to determine their continuity requirements in a comprehensive manner. Furthermore, the benchmark can be used to compare different business continuity methodologies, but also to identify an appropriate methodology that meets an organization’s requirements. This will help organizations to establish and sustain an effective and efficient business continuity process without the need of extended know-how in that area.
