The BCI Horizon Scan 2016 surveyed 568 organizations across 74 countries to assess threats to business continuity. Cyber attacks were ranked as the number one threat for the fifth consecutive year. Data breaches and IT/telecoms outages were also top concerns. Supply chain disruption and availability of key talents emerged as growing issues. While most organizations experience at least one disruption annually, only one third use trend analysis to guide their business continuity programs. The survey highlights cyber issues, human factors like skills shortages, and access to trend analysis as important considerations for business resilience.
