Business Continuity Plan (BCP)
BCP
خطة استمرارية الأعمال
A documented collection of procedures and information that enables an organization to respond to disruptions, maintain critical business functions, and recover operations to predefined levels following a disaster or significant incident. The BCP identifies critical business processes, recovery time objectives (RTO), recovery point objectives (RPO), and the resources required to sustain operations during adverse conditions.
Critical System Classification
CSC

A SAMA CSF requirement mandating financial institutions to identify and categorize their information systems based on criticality to business operations and potential impact of disruption. Systems are classified as Critical, High, Medium, or Low, with corresponding security controls and recovery time objectives (RTO) assigned to each classification level.
Recovery Point Objective (RPO)
RPO
نقطة هدف الاستعادة
The maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time before a disruption that an organization can tolerate. RPO determines the frequency of data backups and defines how much data can be lost without causing significant harm to business operations or regulatory compliance.
Recovery Time Objective (RTO)

الهدف الزمني للتعافي
The maximum acceptable length of time that a business process, application, or system can be down after a disaster or disruption before the organization experiences unacceptable consequences, used to prioritize recovery efforts and allocate resources.
