| Abstract: | Cyber attacks are considered a big threat to the business continuity of organizations. Preparing and testing systems and people for these situations to take place is challeng- ing due to their disruptive effect on business operations. This makes the preparation for realistic cyber resilience scenarios difficult to achieve. This study shows the possibility of using a Digital Twin-like solution to support and improve system capabilities for business continuity management processes and how it can enhance the cyber resilience of organi- zations. More specifically, a literature review was conducted on the topic from which the insights initiated a design study to develop a conceptual digital model architecture which can improve and integrate with three business continuity management processes: disaster recovery, disaster recovery test and business impact analysis. We call this conceptual so- lution the Resilience Digital Model Architecture (RDMA), which we have described using Enterprise Architecture models. By implementing the RDMA, organizations can get more insights into their IT interdependencies and reduce disaster recovery time in a disrupting cyber-attack scenario. |
