An excellent choice to keep up with cybersecurity education
The field of information security is constantly evolving as new threats are discovered each day. Our consultants have to keep up with new knowledge and techniques to conduct pentesting, vulnerability remediation, computer forensic audits, and so on. Traditional training in cybersecurity is very expensive, lengthy, and lacks practical experience. When we found Infosec Skills we were impressed with the many themes available in their library, their focus, and also with the price, which is very economic in comparison with other alternatives. Also, their cyber ranges allow our employees to practice the skills needed in a very practical way. We are very happy to count on Infosec [Skills] as an educational ally.

Fantastic Product
Our security department is in its infancy and we use it daily to learn best practices and educate ourselves on tools that can be used to help secure our environment. There are a couple of staff members looking to obtain certifications and it's also used to prepare them for the test.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I become a data recovery expert?
Becoming an expert requires education, hands-on experience and continuous learning. A strong foundation in computer science or IT and relevant certifications such as the Certified Data Recovery Professional (CDRP) are good places to start. Dedicate yourself to continuous improvement and professional development to become a sought-after data recovery expert. Practical and hands-on experience with various storage devices and data recovery tools and specializing in various data recovery techniques help you stay updated with the latest advancements.
Is it hard to pass the Certified Data Recovery Professional (CDRP) exam?
Passing the CDRP exam is easier with the right tools. With quality preparation, study materials, resources and practice exams, your odds of passing the exam are very high. In fact, with our Exam Pass Guarantee and 93% pass rate, you will likely pass your exam on the first try.
Can forensic recovery tools recover overwritten files?
Forensic recovery tools often cannot fully recover overwritten files. When a file is overwritten, original content is replaced with new data, making it difficult to recover, especially if the data has been securely overwritten multiple times.
In some cases, advanced data recovery techniques may have limited success, such as recovering fragments or remnants of overwritten files. However, the chances of complete recovery are minimal, and the results are often unreliable and highly dependent.
Do IT support specialists provide data recovery services?
IT support specialists can provide basic data recovery services, but their scope is typically limited to simpler cases. IT support specialists are generally responsible for providing technical assistance, troubleshooting software and hardware issues and ensuring the smooth operation of computer systems and networks within an organization.
Depending on their specific role, training and certification, IT support specialists can perform data recovery tasks, but a professional data recovery expert or specialized data recovery service provider is more likely to ensure successful recovery.
