Thanks

Hi Dave,

A good question to start this forum. AuditNet has a page devoted to disaster recovery/business continuity plans. You can reach it at http://www.auditnet.org/drp.htm I also have a Business Continuity Planning Guide from Bell South that is available on by request. There are a number of business continuity and disaster recovery planning audit programs, checklists and questionnaires available to registered users and subscribers. Unregistered users and non-subscribers can get any of these documents by sharing an original audit work program. As far as general Web resources there is a disaster recovery guide site at http://www.disaster-recovery-guide.com/ The FFIEC has an excellent Business Continuity Planning handbook at http://www.ffiec.gov/ffiecinfobase/book ... y_plan.pdf

I am sure there are others that could be shared by fellow auditors.

Regards,

Jim
