EC-Council Disaster Recovery Professional
E-DRP, or The Disaster Recovery Professional course, teaches you the methods in identifying vulnerabilities and takes appropriate countermeasures to prevent and mitigate failure risks for an organization.
It also provides the networking professional with a foundation in disaster recovery principles, including preparation of a disaster recovery plan, assessment of risks in the enterprise, development of policies, and procedures, and understanding of the roles and relationships of various members of an organization, implementation of the plan, and recovering from a disaster. This course takes an enterprise-wide approach to developing a disaster recovery plan. Students will learn how to create a secure network by putting policies and procedures in place, and how to restore a network in the event of a disaster.
Although we mention the EDRP last on our list, that doesn’t mean it ranks last in perceived value or name recognition. If anything, the EDRP is probably the best known of the bunch. It is entirely worth pursuing for IT professionals responsible for or involved in any organization’s disaster recovery or business continuity planning, testing and implementation.
