This document discusses a seminar on data recovery. It defines data and data recovery, describes common causes of data loss like hardware errors and human errors. It provides tips for data recovery like backing up data frequently and tips to prevent further damage. The document outlines the data recovery process, including making a sector copy of the hard drive and sending it to a data recovery company. It also discusses techniques for data recovery like scanning probe microscopy.

The development of intelligent network forensic tools to focus on specific type of network traffic analysis is a challenge in terms of future perspective.
This will reduce time delays, less computational resources requirement; minimize attacks, providing reliable and secured evidences, and efficient investigation with minimum efforts
Computer forensics is a very important branch of computer science in relation to computer and Internet related crimes. Earlier, computers were only used to produce data but now it has expanded to all devices related to digital data. The goal of Computer forensics is to perform crime investigations by using evidence from digital data to find who was the responsible for that particular crime.
For better research and investigation, developers have created many computer forensics tools. Police departments and investigation agencies select the tools based on various factors including budget and available experts on the team.

An overview of the Backup and Disaster Recovery Solution By Harris Computer Services.
Prepared and Presented By: Eric Smith of Harris Computer Services
Hard Disk Drive or External Hard Disk Drive is the place where the data of the computer are stored. If it crashes then it is quite difficult for the person who has lost all the data. Under the circumstances, hard disk recovery services provide a valuable help.
Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery v7Prannay Shahi
Recover all your lost or deleted files such as Office documents, emails, spreadsheets, presentations, photos, videos, audio files and more with Free Windows Data Recovery Software.
Physical media damage, a.k.a physical damages to hard drives that can make data unrecoverable, is something every computer user should know about and take precautions against (especially if your profession requires you to work with sensitive information).
Back it up or pack it up! Did you know that 60% of all small businesses that lose their data are out of business within 6 months? Don’t be one of them! Your New Year’s Resolution for your business should be to setup a backup solution, or evaluate the one you have. Come to TechComm this month to learn more about proper backup solutions.
Sharing on Backups including why you should consider backups to a remote location. Presented at ICT Sharing during Contact Time on 22 Feb 2010 by Jeffrey Chua

Empowering the Data Analytics Ecosystem: A Laser Focus on Value
The data analytics ecosystem thrives when every component functions at its peak, unlocking the true potential of data. Here's a laser focus on key areas for an empowered ecosystem:
1. Democratize Access, Not Data:
Granular Access Controls: Provide users with self-service tools tailored to their specific needs, preventing data overload and misuse.
Data Catalogs: Implement robust data catalogs for easy discovery and understanding of available data sources.
2. Foster Collaboration with Clear Roles:
Data Mesh Architecture: Break down data silos by creating a distributed data ownership model with clear ownership and responsibilities.
Collaborative Workspaces: Utilize interactive platforms where data scientists, analysts, and domain experts can work seamlessly together.
3. Leverage Advanced Analytics Strategically:
AI-powered Automation: Automate repetitive tasks like data cleaning and feature engineering, freeing up data talent for higher-level analysis.
Right-Tool Selection: Strategically choose the most effective advanced analytics techniques (e.g., AI, ML) based on specific business problems.
4. Prioritize Data Quality with Automation:
Automated Data Validation: Implement automated data quality checks to identify and rectify errors at the source, minimizing downstream issues.
Data Lineage Tracking: Track the flow of data throughout the ecosystem, ensuring transparency and facilitating root cause analysis for errors.
5. Cultivate a Data-Driven Mindset:
Metrics-Driven Performance Management: Align KPIs and performance metrics with data-driven insights to ensure actionable decision making.
Data Storytelling Workshops: Equip stakeholders with the skills to translate complex data findings into compelling narratives that drive action.
Benefits of a Precise Ecosystem:
Sharpened Focus: Precise access and clear roles ensure everyone works with the most relevant data, maximizing efficiency.
Actionable Insights: Strategic analytics and automated quality checks lead to more reliable and actionable data insights.
Continuous Improvement: Data-driven performance management fosters a culture of learning and continuous improvement.
Sustainable Growth: Empowered by data, organizations can make informed decisions to drive sustainable growth and innovation.
By focusing on these precise actions, organizations can create an empowered data analytics ecosystem that delivers real value by driving data-driven decisions and maximizing the return on their data investment.
