Welcome to Module 4 / Session 2
This learner guide summarises the main ideas, activities, and applied tasks for this session. Use it during class and for post-session review.
Learning objectives
- Assess how business continuity contributes to operational resilience rather than standing alone as a document exercise.
- Explain the role of incident response in containing disruption and supporting recovery.
- Evaluate why disruption testing and scenario rehearsal matter for resilience confidence.
- Use dependency mapping to identify critical services, upstream dependencies, and recovery vulnerabilities.
- Judge whether resilience arrangements are realistic for a given operating context.
Core ideas for this session
- Continuity, incident response, testing, and dependency mapping are strongest when they work together.
- A plan that has not been tested may not represent real capability.
- Resilience judgment depends on understanding what critical services rely on.
