This document discusses risk management and introduces the concept of "known unknowns". It summarizes the key points as: 1) Risk management is an ongoing process to assess risks to business objectives and select cost-effective controls to maintain an acceptable level of risk. It involves identifying, analyzing, and managing options for handling risks. 2) Organizations should be prepared for any eventualities, including "known unknowns" - potentially serious risks that are known to exist but are unpredictable in terms of timing and impact. 3) As business continuity professionals, we have an obligation to ensure staff are informed of policies, procedures, and expectations to effectively manage risks, including in emergency scenarios.
