Building Effective Cyber Resilience BCP: Insights from Newton Consulting Webinar

In today's fast-paced business environment, the ability to adapt and respond to unexpected challenges is essential. Newton Consulting, a risk management consultancy based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is conducting a free online webinar on June 18, 2025, from 12:00 to 12:30 PM titled "Learning from Latest Cases: Recommendations for Cyber Resilient BCP". This webinar aims to address the pressing issue of creating a business continuity plan (BCP) that can withstand the growing threat of cyberattacks.

In recent years, the landscape of business continuity has changed dramatically. Companies are no longer just concerned with natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods; they must also prepare for sophisticated cyber threats and IT-related risks. As a response, organizations are increasingly adopting an "All-Hazards BCP" approach that encompasses a wide range of potential crises. However, despite this awareness, many companies still reveal a lack of confidence in their current BCPs to manage these modern risks effectively.

Often, the root cause of this insecurity stems from a disconnect between the security measures implemented and the actual needs of business units. Cybersecurity is a highly specialized field, and technical solutions frequently take precedence while failing to fully integrate the recovery levels and continuity requirements essential to the business side. Furthermore, business units may struggle to articulate their needs to IT departments, hindering proper risk mitigation and response strategies.

As each department operates in silos, the risk of significant consequences increases dramatically when a security incident arises. The upcoming webinar aims to bridge this gap by offering participants actionable insights based on Newton Consulting’s extensive track record in supporting BCP initiatives. The focus will be on incorporating perspectives from the business side to foster a more effective and comprehensive cyber-resilient BCP.

Who Should Attend

This webinar is designed for BCP office personnel who are facing various challenges, including:

• - Unsure if their current IT strategies are adequate for BCP
• - Difficulty convincing IT departments for collaborative action
• - Lack of clarity on the benefits of strengthening IT-related BCP
• - Uncertainty on measures needed for quick recovery post-cyber incident
