Digital Twins: Adopting a Data-Centric Approach to Mature Resilience

This blog post was authored by Brett McGowan - Director, Technology Consulting - London on Protiviti's technology insights blog.

Operational resilience – the ability for firms to prevent, adapt, respond to, recover and learn from operational disruptions – is a common concern for clients, leading to questions such as: Which management information should firms report against? Or, how can organisations advance testing beyond tabletop scenarios? While the answers often depend on specific contexts, leveraging available data across the business can help address these questions.

A data-centric approach, where data plays a significant role in assessing resilience, is crucial. However, organisations often struggle with poorly governed, low-quality data that lacks integrity, availability and authenticity. Manual data sourcing further complicates matters, affecting timeliness and accuracy. Protiviti recommends harnessing available data to gain deeper insights into an organisation’s resilience.
