Breach. Blackout. Recovery.

Can we still operate? When prevention fails, resilience is the only strategy left. Breach. Blackout. Recovery. is the boardroom-to-control-room war-room model for the day your business is under attack: keeping critical services alive while systems are down, recovering under pressure, and proving afterwards that you acted reasonably.Updated for the 2030 Withstand Era, the book spans cyber, cloud, healthcare, retail, industrial and critical infrastructure environments, and joins cyber resilience, OT security and business continuity into one operating model that a board can govern and an operations team can run.What changes in 30 days: critical services named and owned, with tolerance windows agreed. In 60 days: backup and identity gaps closed, crisis decision rights written down. In 90 days: the worst-night tabletop run, one recovery proved end to end, and a board dashboard backed by evidence rather than assurance.Who should read this: boards and executives accountable under NIS2 and DORA; CISOs, CIOs, CROs and COOs; OT and continuity leaders; and the consultants, insurers and regulators who hold them to account.Part of the Board-Survivable Cyber Architecture series, the book gives leaders the decision rights, evidence and rehearsal discipline to survive a breach, a blackout and the recovery that follows.Key topics include: cyber resilience, business continuity, ransomware and OT failure response, crisis decision rights, backup and identity recovery, tabletop exercises, evidence-based board reporting, NIS2 and DORA accountability, critical services mapping and operational recovery.
