Listening to the lectures and people taking about their experiences was quite humbling and very much brought home to me the reality of the incidents we plan for as business continuity people. This could have large business continuity implications if one of your key team members was involved in a major incident.

In 2014, the hacking group Anonymous hacked two KKK Twitter accounts and then said they would release a list of KKK members.

It is agreed that the referendum will take place on 2014 and so for the next two years, I suspect there will be furious disagreement amongst those who are pro-independence and those who want to stay within the union. Indecision and focus on other things, I think, is the enemy of the business continuity manager trying to carry out their role.
