Ransomware Disaster for UKG & Customers: Business Continuity Required

Posted by Mark Smith on Jan 27, 2022 3:00:00 AM

The necessity of business continuity came to a reality with the pandemic in early 2020, with the requirement to avoid the risk of interruption to the fundamentals of an organization.

Can you operate your business if critical software is not available for more than a day, week, month or longer? Unfortunately, our assertion is that by 2025, after decades of digital transformation efforts, two-thirds of organizations will not resource business continuity as an investment priority to reduce operational risk in black swan events.

In essence, the essential foundation for performance management is planning that can ensure its alignment or optimization in order to reach strategic objectives.
