Written by Phil on March 11, 2010 in Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery.

Disaster recovery (DR) budget preparation is time-consuming, but with the right tools, the budgeting process for disaster recovery and business continuity (BC) programs can be less intimidating.

These articles address assumptions and considerations when developing a disaster recovery (DR) and business continuity (BC) budget.

A free, downloadable disaster recovery template will help you get started with your budget.

See A guide to planning and controlling your disaster recovery budget, and  Disaster recovery checklist: What you need in your DR budget, by Paul F. Kirvan, CISA, CISSP, FBCI, CBCP for SearchDisasterRecovery.com.
