Directory of Data Recovery Soft Tools

Directory of Data Recovery Soft Tools

Practitioners of eDiscovery or data recovery approach the matter from many angles. Primarily, any ESI (electronically stored information) data requires understanding and analysis of devices and systems which may contain/store the ESI. Take the eDiscovery issue. There are the argumentative issues of what is viewable and what is not:
  
"If there is a large volume of ESI, you should discuss the best method for it to be searched, collected, filtered and reviewed with your lawyer."

However, there is a myraid of issues involved prior to even enabling ESI to become visible and legible. Indeed, tools that can be used for common and standard office based systems can have limited or absolutely no effect for industrial based devices and systems. Today's savvy investigator is not only expected to technology aware but also technology astute where ESI is concerned:

"A typical smart phone contains a 2 GB removable memory card, which can contain the equivalent of 40 banker’s boxes of paper, or 100,000 pages."

This is not an exhaustive directory listing below and even then I shall need to add another 400 entries or more as there are so many varieties out there. If your product is not listed here send an email to me (trewmte@gmail.com) with details and I shall include it in the directory list.
