  • Part-I 1. Introduction
    Market Potential- Retail and Corporate Part-I 1. Introduction 1.1 Executive Summary: This project titled “An assessment for data recovery business in Aurangabad with respect to retail and corporate business” was undertaken in Stellar Information Technology Private limited for 7 weeks for the partial fulfillment of the course. My industry mentor Branch Manager instructed me to cover Aurangabad location to explore awareness about Stellar Information technology Private limited. This project provides insights about customer awareness about brand name of Stellar Data Recovery. The customer awareness about data recovery and other services being offered by Stellar were explored in detail. The project was conducted in Aurangabad location and 194 companies participated in the survey. As per my research I found out that Stellar is the only company that provides both data recovery services as well as software. There is a huge potential for the company because of the quality of service being offered. The competition from local players are stiff but could be overcome easily as there isn’t any branded international players from data recovery industry in Aurangabad area. 1.2 Introduction to the concept: What is Data Recovery? When put simply, data recovery is the process of retrieving computer data that for any number of reasons has become inaccessible using normal methods. Many prominent data recovery facilities have a large array of hardware, software and tools for recovering data. Generally speaking when a hard drive is received by a data recovery firm, the first thing they do is evaluate it, and determine what recovery solution will be necessary.

  • Critical Incident Response and CIRT Development
    AU0010_C04.fm Page 229 Wednesday, August 13, 2003 8:28 AM Chapter 4 Critical Incident Response and CIRT Development Critical Incident Management In modern organizations, the combination of easily available data, poorly administered safeguards, and malicious individuals make systems vulnerable and attractive to attacks. Almost daily, we hear of businesses being robbed of critical information assets or suffering outages through virus infections or denial-of-service attacks. Computer net- works are still relatively new, having their birth only 30 years ago. It sometimes seems hard to put in perspective, but the vaunted Information Highway was just getting its feet of the ground in the early 1980s. And, as information became an extremely valuable commodity, the exploitation of vulnerabilities seemed to keep pace with the growth of network systems. Illustrating this point is one of the most famous misdeeds, the 1988 “Morris Worm” incident resulted in a significantly large percentage of the network systems with Internet connections being corrupted and removed from service. This was the catalyst that caused Internet users to have postmortem meetings where they decided that preventative, detective, and corrective steps had to be made active parts of their business practice. For the past seven years, the Computer Crime and Security survey has been conducted jointly by the Computer Security Institute (www.gocsi.com) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s San Francisco, California, office. The purpose of this survey is to raise levels of computer system awareness while measuring the magnitude and frequency of computer crimes. The 2002 survey results are based on 503 responses from computer security professionals practicing in U.S.
