How Computer Forensics Can Help YOU
Because of increased usage and dependence on the Internet for corporate and individual communication, electronic communication is now the standard and 'paper' communication is the new exception...
Consider these facts:
- 80% of all corporate and business data is stored electronically.
- 95% of new data is stored electronically on computers and servers (approximately 80% of this information stays in electronic format like email, pdf, word documents and digital images).
- Any data that can be compiled into viewable form, whether presented electronically or printed on paper, is potentially within the definition of �document" and can be considered evidence.
- Electronic documents that may be considered obsolete in terms of current value often provide evidentiary clues that help prove historical precedence and substantiate current facts.
- Specialized computer forensic techniques can recover deleted files, documents and correspondence from servers, laptops and desktops, Blackberry phones, flash drives, cell phones and more.

2. Very carefully remove the hard drive from the CPU so that you can take all measures to retrieve the data.
3. Do not try to heat or dry the hard drive as this could do further damage to it. When flooding occurs, dirt and other debris may have entered your computer and by trying to remove the water from the hard drive, you may accidentally scratch the hard drive.
4. The other thing that you need to take care is not to open the hard drive. Computer hard drives should be opened only in a clean and sterile environment so that things like dust and debris do not get a chance to enter inside.
5. Finally take your hard drive and seal it in an airtight bag along with a damp sponge. If the drive was completely immersed in water, it is important that you keep it moist.
6. Now the actually task for data recovery begins. You have to find a data recovery expert to retrieve the data from your hard drive.
