Masterclass – IT Service Continuity Management

Often referred to as disaster recovery, IT Service Continuity Management (ITSCM) is an ITIL aligned discipline that takes a holistic approach to ensure IT services are healthy and are able to support the business when required. ITSCM addresses the gaps in the traditional disaster recovery approach by introducing layers of resilience that provide higher levels of protection. This layering is realised by using technologies that are readily available such as virtualisation and high availability fail-over.

By attending this event, you will:

• Understand what IT service continuity is
• Realise the financial and operational benefits of ITSCM

• Evaluate your existing IT service continuity management maturity level
• Identify your disaster recovery planning gaps

Facilitated by Paul Love, an independent consultant who is industry recognised for his IT service continuity management knowledge and experience; the event is designed for ITSM professionals either looking to get started with ITSCM or looking to improve their existing efforts.
