Certifications to support risk resilience.

I am in the very early phase of investigating a business opportunity based around providing small to medium businesses ( max 50 staff ) with risk resilience services. In effect we accept that a cyber attack is inevitable, so we want to assist businesses to be agile enough to recover from an event with minimal disruption. I'm looking to see what certifications would be appropriate.

Answer: If your focus is the recovery of business activities you should consider the ISO 22301 certification, because it can provide you the bases for identifying the most critical aspects of the business, the most relevant disruptions scenarios and how to handle them properly to minimize impact and speed up recovery.

Additionally, I also suggest you to consider ISO 27001 certification, since you also have to consider the protection of business information, and ISO 27001 is specifically designed to handle information protection.
