Yes, ISO/IEC 27001 does cover business continuity as an integral part of an organization's Information Security Management System (ISMS). The standard requires that organizations identify and assess their information security risks and take steps to mitigate or manage those risks, which includes implementing a business continuity plan.
ISO/IEC 27001 specifically addresses the need for business continuity management as part of the risk management process. Clause 8.2.2 of the standard requires that organizations have a process in place to manage and maintain continuity in the event of a disruption to their information security, and that this process should be integrated with the organization's overall business continuity management system.
ISO/IEC 27001 also includes requirements for regular testing, reviewing, and updating of the business continuity plan to ensure that it remains effective and up to date. This helps to ensure that organizations are able to respond effectively to incidents and minimize the impact of any disruptions to their business operations.
