Ontrack provides assistance to businesses and consumers on recovering data from damaged devices
MINNEAPOLIS — Ontrack has a long history of recovering data for victims of global disasters, including Hurricane Katrina, bushfires in Australia, and others. Due to the “apocalyptic” wildfires that have been burning through the U.S. since mid-August, thousands of buildings and entire towns have been destroyed. Ontrack has advice on how victims can recover data from computers, hard drives, servers, and mobile devices that have been damaged in the fires to help rebuild businesses and family memories.
"As the wildfires continue to rage, our hearts go out to those in the affected areas,” said Phil Bridge, president of Ontrack. “Insurance may assist in helping to rebuild structures and replace physical possessions, but the loss of digital files, such as family photos, financial records, and critical business data, can be devastating as well. We hope that by following our advice, those impacted will increase the likelihood of successful data recovery, meaning you could be reunited with your treasured data much sooner than you thought."
