End-to-end mapping

Six layers, down to tier-2 third parties, to find the breaking points

Mapping does not exist to document the status quo: it exists to reveal single points of failure. This course gives a method that produces a usable result in six weeks rather than a two-year project.

Learning objectives

  • Map six resource layers per service
  • Go to useful depth, not maximum depth
  • Identify and qualify single points of failure
  • Maintain the map without a dedicated team

Intended audience

  • Resilience leads
  • Enterprise architects
  • Service owners
  • Third-party risk

Prerequisites

  • Identifying important services and tolerances
