SmartCarving Technology™

SmartCarving Technology is an innovative process to recover deleted data in the presence of fragmentation. At this time, no other product is known to recover fragmented data. For our customers, SmartCarving Technology means more recovery with less effort.

The data recovery techniques used by our products are developed in the Information Systems and Internet Security (ISIS) laboratory at the Department of Computer and Information Science, Polytechnic University. SmartCarving Technology was developed over years of academic research with results presented in leading technical conferences as well as published in peer-reviewed journals.
