How do security controls support business continuity planning?

Security controls play a critical role in business continuity planning and recovery efforts after cyber incidents by helping to prevent, detect, and respond to any potential threats or attacks. By implementing robust security controls, organizations can minimize the impact of cyber incidents, maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of their data and systems, and ensure a faster recovery process. Security controls such as access controls, encryption, intrusion detection systems, firewalls, incident response plans, and backups all work together to protect the organization’s assets and enable a more efficient response in the event of a cyber incident.
