Business Continuity V Disaster Recovery

What’s the Difference?

Life happens and disruptions like natural disasters or cyberattacks can hit any business when you least expect it. That’s why it’s super important to have business continuity and disaster recovery plans in place. While they might sound similar, they have different jobs to do. Let’s break it down!

Business Continuity

Think of business continuity as your game plan for keeping things running smoothly when a disruption hits. It’s all about having strategies and procedures in place to keep your essential operations going until things get back to normal. Your Business Continuity Plan (BCP) spells out what needs to happen, who’s in charge, and how to handle any bumps in the road.

Disaster Recovery

Disaster recovery is your tech safety net. It focuses on getting your IT systems and data back up and running after a disruption. With clear goals like Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO), it ensures you’re not left scrambling to recover lost data.

Both plans are all about being prepared for the unexpected, and they should be regularly tested and updated. The main difference? Business continuity is about keeping things moving during a crisis, while disaster recovery is focused on restoring your IT systems afterward.
