The 2013 Continuity Insights Management Conference, April 22-24, 2013, is less than three weeks away, and the team at Continuity Insights is gearing up for an exciting lineup of thought leaders, original content and recognized vendors.

The conference lineup includes three plenary sessions:
- In “The New Crisis Of Cyber Warfare — Are You Under Attack?” presented by David Chalk, Entrepreneur, Technology Expert and Visionary, Chalk will give attendees a clear picture of the current state of cyber warfare, and empower them to take the steps necessary to prepare for, and recover from, a cyberattack.
- In “Shots Fired: Managing The Operational Risk Of An Active Shooter Incident,” presented by Steven M. Crimando, MA, BCETSETSETS, CHS-V, Principal, Behavioral Science Applications, Crimando will give a candid presentation about the evolution of the active shooter threat, and introduce a comprehensive approach to active shooter prevention, response and recovery.
- To round out the plenary lineup, “From EF3 To FOB (Freight On Board) In 33 Days: Resilience At Spirit AeroSystems,” presented by Scott Norlin, BCM Program Manager, Spirit AeroSystems and Damian Walch, Director, Enterprise Risk Services, Deloitte, Norlin and Walch will share the feel-good business continuity story of the year — detailing how a disaster that could have easily disrupted operations was handled efficiently.
In addition to plenary sessions, the conference’s breakout sessions will detail how companies and organizations can better handle IT risks, crisis management, social media, pandemics, day-to-day decision making, and more. The pre- and post-conference workshops will offer an in-depth look at topics including BCI best practices and how to ensure a successful BIA, among others.
Do you have a business continuity conundrum of your own? If so, there’s good news: The popular “Ask The Experts” track is back, giving attendees the chance to present their problems, challenges and questions to the panel of experts, who will then provide real-world solutions.
After being on your toes, it’s important to kick up your heels. Therefore, the conference will also offer a number of relaxed events, including a welcome reception, a “Zoofari” celebration at the San Diego Zoo, a silent auction, and the Continuity Cares community service project (to be held at the San Diego Food Bank).
