Microsoft Exchange Server is Microsoft's email, calendar, contacts, scheduling, and collaboration platform. It is implemented on the Windows Server operating system (OS) for commercial use. Exchange Server is designed to allow users to access the messaging platform from mobile devices, desktop computers, and web-based systems. This article explains what you can do with it and what the different versions of Microsoft Exchange Server mean. How Does Exchange Server Work? Exchange Server is an enterprise-grade collaboration product primarily focused on sending, receiving, and storing email messages. In addition to message management, Exchange Server offers several other collaboration features, such as calendars and tight integration with other Microsoft Office applications. High availability is one of its main feature. These provide continuous service in various failure scenarios, including design paths that can guarantee service during single server or data center outages. These...

HOW FILE GETS LOST AND THEN RECOVERED

It can happen that the knowledge that's stored in electronic devices is lost suddenly. In that case, the keys to recovering the You can have data from simple programs to computer forensics. WHAT IS DATA RECOVERY? The data recovery is defined in the field of computer science as a set of techniques and procedures used to access and extract information stored on digital storage media, for reasons of injury or damage may not be accessible to ordinary form. The procedures used for data recovery are often wont to recover information from differing types of media: hard drives, USB sticks, and digital cameras, CDs or DVDs, among others. Data recovery is important for various reasons: physical damage to the memory device or logical failures (file system damage, partition damage, accidental formatting, etc.). How Do We Get To Lose Our Data? Deleted Data: The main loss of private and corporate data is due to human errors. These are even greater than the failures of hardware and sof...

DATA RECOVERY: TIPS TO PREVENT DATA LOSS

Image
Malware is present on every electronic device these days. For example, even the firmware of these devices can hide malware. Firmware is the operational program of a hardware component, including hard drives. Often the causes of data loss are defective read or write heads, or surface damage in the magnetic disks. It has developed its own tools and methods to access the firmware in order to fix bugs and gain access to the data on the hard drive. Today's hard drives can contain more than 100MB of machine code. That means there is enough space available to hide malware such as Trojans. Attack scenarios for the manipulation of the media Potential attack scenarios include undetected manipulation of the media device directly at the factory, or during product preparation or exploitation of operating system vulnerabilities. The hard drive only needs to be booted for a short time to activate the malware. After starting the computer, the Trojan manipulates the data during read operation...

DATA RECOVERY: A CASE STUDY

Image
Last year recovery Labs carried out an internal technical study where the different reasons that caused the loss of data were analyzed. This study collects data from damaged hard drives and various devices received over the past year. The data obtained is surprising, since almost half of the data losses that occur are due to the operation of hard drives themselves, human error being the second most important cause. Viruses, curiously, do not represent a particularly relevant cause (7.8%). Another piece of information provided by the hard drive providers themselves is that approximately 4% of the hard drives sold in Spain suffer some failure during the first year. These data show us that no matter how advanced our company's backup system is, no one is safe from suffering data loss. 80% of customers who have requested data recovery . Given these expectations, some offers its data recovery service, which has become an indispensable service for many companies and individuals,...
