The Financial Services Technology Consortium (FSTC) has announced that its project team has begun work on the next phase of the Resiliency Model project. This initiative is the result of an ongoing collaboration with the Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute CERT Program to look for innovations in improving and benchmarking operational risk management and business continuity practices. “With this important phase of our on-going efforts to help organizations deal with business continuity and security issues, we will use the framework to validate and refine the methodology of resiliency engineering,” said Charles Wallen, managing executive of FSTC’s Business Continuity Standing Committee. “Over the next several months, we plan to conduct pilots at a variety of organizations and industries that will help us develop a process improvement guide that can accompany the resulting model.” www.fstc.org
