Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

Unintentional loss or deletion of data is a common occurrence, with several factors responsible for it, including accidental permanent deletion of files, lack of data backups, data corruption, software issues, malware or virus attacks, hardware malfunction, or even unpredictable disasters. However, even after the emptying of the Recycle Bin, data continues to exist in the drive, and it can still be recovered by breaking into Windows using numerous techniques and tools.

The course begins with a look at how to perform a backup of your data and restore software (e.g. EaseUS, Windows File Recovery). Moving ahead, you will learn to use forensics for data recovery as well as how to recover deleted data from Windows using The Sleuth Kit. Next, you will learn how to use the Windows File Recovery App, as well as how to use Command Prompt to recover deleted data. Ransomware attacks are popular nowadays, next we will explore how to use Cloud as a location for your backups and how to mitigate this kind of attack. Furthermore, the course will demonstrate how to recover data from Hard drives, as well as how to perform NTFS data recovery, Fat32 data recovery, and exFAT data recovery. You will also learn how to perform RAID recovery and tape recovery. The course will end with a demonstration of how to recover data deleted from Optical disks and removable drives.
