Topic:

Deconstructing the FUDD Chain

Fear, uncertainty, doubt, and disruption (FUDD) often link together in a way that inhibits our understanding about what we can control and whether recovery from adversity is even possible. The National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) Risk Management Framework (RMF) offers an integrated approach for building business resilience along multiple dimensions including cybersecurity, product safety, and disaster planning. This talk will explore the RMF stages and real-world examples of business continuity successes despite FUDD challenges.
