Kate Mars sent in a note about their upcoming conference. "For the FIRST time the Civil Contingencies Secretariat (CCS) will present their concept of the National Resilience Framework, developed as a basis for managing risk and resilience in key areas of the UK's infrastructure." Protecting Critical Information Infrastructures Conference and Exhibition MANAGING Information Risk in a Changed World - Solutions for Survival 19th March 2002, The Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre, London ALL Organisations, large or small, are vulnerable to some form of risk. It may be in the form of a storm, flood, fire, the result of a terrorist action or some other consequence of personal, organisational or technological failure. But, if the risk is large enough it can put the business out of action in the short and even long term. Planning makes a substantial difference to the possibility of surviving risk. No single organisational contingency plan will be appropriate to each and every disaster, nor will a single organisational blueprint meet every need. An effective response is based on sound principles, experience and the problem in hand. For the FIRST time the Civil Contingencies Secretariat (CCS) will present their concept of the National Resilience Framework, developed as a basis for managing risk and resilience in key areas of the UK's infrastructure. This is of Relevance to Chief Executives and Managers from All Organisations, including Local and Central Government, whether delivering a Service or Goods and whether in Private or Public Ownership or the Voluntary Sector. The aim of this framework is to improve the UK's ability to deal with disruptive challenges, which could otherwise lead to nationalcrisis. The emphasis of this framework is on the response to an incident and not the cause of the incident, it embraces and integrates an organisation's working structure between different departments and the vital need to co-ordinate with other authorities, organisations and sectors. The success of this process depends directly on the genuine commitment and visible support from all CEO's. The conference web site provides further details of this (particularly timely) annual event. Just review the speakers and their subjects - Can your organisation afford not to be fully represented? The potential value cannot be overstated.
