Data Recovery Performed Remotly
Summary:
With the increasing dependency on data in today’s world and the proliferation of critical information being stored on business computers and home PC’s, there is a growing need for data recovery solutions. Data recovery performed remotely through an Internet connection or modem is the fastest, easiest, most cost-effective, and in many cases, the best solution for recovering missing or corrupt data. Until recently, data lost due to hardware and software malfunctions, unbootable computers, viruses, user
error, and deleted or missing partitions was considered gone forever. Today most lost data is recoverable. In fact, when hardware isn’t damaged, this recovery process can be done remotely over the Internet or through
a modem connection. To understand how data recovery is performed remotely, it is first important to learn about the trends associated with data loss, the causes and impact of lost data, and the Remote Data Recovery™ solution. Trends Associated with Data Loss The loss of data is growing exponentially. Over the course of performing more than 125,000 data recoveries, Ontrack Data Recovery, a leading provider of data recovery software and services, has identified some of the top trends contributing to an increase in lost data:
• Increase in Electronically Stored Data – As more and more corporations, small companies, and home users rely on computer data to execute their daily operations and subsequently store data electronically, the increase of lost data is inevitable.
• Larger Storage Modules – Today’s hard drives store substantially more data than the hard drives of a decade ago. Increased storage capacities both increase the likelihood and amplify the impact of data loss.
• Growth of Mission-Critical Data – Users today are storing more electronic mission-critical data than ever before. The loss of such data can have staggering financial, legal, and productivity ramifications on businesses and home users alike.
• Unreliable Backup Tools and Techniques – Most computer users rely on backups (a recommended practice) as their safety net in the event of data loss. Ontrack research indicates that 80 percent of its data loss customers regularly backup their data, only to find them less than adequate at the critical moment they need to restore them. Backups assume that hardware and storage media are in working order, that the data is not corrupt, and that backups are recent enough to provide full recovery. In reality, hardware and software fail and backups don’t always contain current enough data.
