    Lots of certs for the tools (backup software) - none that I know of that are generic in nature.

    EC-Council has been inventing certs left right and center... that list is ridiculous and I would seriously question the value of the majority of them. My 2c.

    I agree.

    The only thing that I could mention would be the ISSMP concentration exam for CISSPs. It's primary domains are:
    • Enterprise Security Management Practices
    • Enterprise-Wide System Development Security
    • Law, Investigations, Forensics and Ethics
    • Overseeing Compliance of Operations Security
    • Understanding Business Continuity Planning (BCP), Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP), and Continuity of Operations Planning (COOP)

    (ISC)² Security Transcends Technology

    Most likely beyond the scope of what you are looking but does cover that particular area; in addition to what you should study for the CISSP exam.

    ITIL at the intermediate and Expert levels talks somewhat in-depth about continuity.

    Additionally, there is this organization: https://www.drii.org/certification/index.php

    I've seen 1 or 2 people here and there that have some of their certs, but I have no idea of the demand for them...

    Completely agree! EC Council really feels like the Nigerian prince of certifications to me.

    Being a Brit in Northern England, I personally can't wait for the EC-Council to release their ETDP (Tea Drinking Professional) certification which will be put at the top of my to-do list.
