A method for assessing the risk and cost for data loss and disaster recovery (DR) plans includes providing an application having a graphical user interface (GUI) comprising first and second windows arranged adjacent to each other. The first window comprises a catalog of components used to generate data disaster recovery (DR) configurations and the second window displays the generated DR configurations. A first DR configuration is generated in the second window and components are added to the first DR configuration by dragging and dropping components from the catalog into appropriate locations of the second window. Metrics for the first DR configuration are calculated and reported in the second window. A second configuration is also similarly generated in the second window and the metrics results are graphically compared to each other.
