The IFMA Risk Management competency emphasizes that resilience refers to an asset's ability to endure failure and still function.
Resilience: The ability of a system to withstand faults and continue operations with minimal disruption.
Recoverable (A): Implies that failure leads to downtime but recovery is possible.
Continuity (B): Focuses more on business continuity planning rather than asset durability.
Dependable (C): Suggests reliability but does not imply post-failure functionality.
