Q

Is it possible to recover deleted data through computer forensics?

Legal IntellectualViews58,601

When I left the company, I deleted important document files, and those documents were materials related to an important company project. Fortunately, the hard disk remains intact, and I am curious whether there is a way to recover the deleted files. If they can be recovered through computer forensics, I would like to check them again.

Answer to Related Inquiry

Data deleted from a computer does not completely disappear through emptying the recycle bin or deleting files.


When a file is deleted, the actual data remains on the disk, but that location is inaccessible until it is overwritten by new data.


Therefore, if you use computer forensics, there is a possibility of recovering the deleted files.


Forensic experts use special programs and equipment to extract and recover deleted data, and an important point in this process is to entrust the matter to a computer forensics expert without damaging the hard disk.


This is because if you use the hard disk carelessly, it may be overwritten and become impossible to recover.


At Daeryun, digital forensics experts with extensive experience in computer forensics carry out the procedures that clients need.


After the recovery work, a results report is also provided, and if legally effective evidence is required, this report can be submitted as evidence.


Because whether files can be recovered can be confirmed quickly, it is advisable to consult an expert promptly so that no further data is overwritten.


In addition, if you visit our firm, we can also provide further advice on how the materials may be used in court, if necessary.


If you would like to accurately confirm the possibility of recovery, it is necessary to send the hard disk to an expert for an initial diagnosis.


If you request computer forensics as soon as possible, we will work to recover the materials and help resolve the case.
