Business Resilience Council
Unite for Resilience Against All Hazards
The Business Resilience Council (BRC) is a nonprofit, multi-sector, collaborative defense community where members share actionable intelligence, security and resilience best practices and analyst-curated information to help reduce risk and negative impacts across all hazards – cyber, physical, geopolitical, terrorism, major weather events and more. Key working groups focus on operational resilience, disaster recovery, supply chain and third party risk, AI security, and cross-sector exercises.
