Hello,

I am not sure if an answer is relevant, since a few weeks has passed
since you posted your question.  But I do have a very nice summary of
the differences.  This summary is not mine, but comes from "The CISSP
Prep Guide," Wiley Computer Publishing, (c) 2001. ISBN: 0-471-41356-9.
The book is worth adding to your collection.

Found on the bottom of page 272:

"...Basically, business continuity planning is the process of making
the plans that will ensure that critical business functions can with-
stand a variety of emergencies.  Disaster recovery planning involves
making preparations for a disaster, but also addresses the procedures
to be followed during and after a loss."

Regards,
- -Matt.

Business Continuity Planning vs Disaster Recovery Planning
 
Has anyone come across (or derived) a good definition that underlines
the difference between these two disciplines? Any references that I've
come across seem to fudge the issue.it's a bit woolly in my head as
well.
