Master Data Recovery and Backup Systems

Build expertise in enterprise backup solutions and disaster recovery through hands-on training with real-world scenarios starting September 2025

Why This Program Works

After spending years helping businesses recover from data disasters, we noticed something. Most training programs teach theory, but when systems actually fail at 3 AM, you need practical skills that work under pressure.

Our approach is different. You'll work with actual failed hard drives, corrupted databases, and ransomware scenarios. We use the same tools and methods that saved a Kaohsiung manufacturing company $2.3 million when their entire production database crashed last year.

The program runs for eight months, giving you time to really understand complex recovery scenarios. By the end, you'll handle situations that would stump most IT professionals. We've structured it this way because quick fixes don't work when someone's business depends on you.

What You'll Actually Do

  • Recover data from physically damaged drives
  • Design backup systems for 24/7 operations
  • Handle ransomware recovery scenarios
  • Build automated failover systems
  • Test recovery procedures under time pressure

Find Your Learning Path

Not everyone needs the same training. Answer a few questions to discover which track fits your goals and current experience level.

1

New to Data Recovery?

Start with fundamentals of file systems, storage technology, and basic recovery tools. Perfect if you're coming from general IT support or want to specialize in data recovery.

2

System Administrator Background?

Jump into enterprise backup architecture and disaster recovery planning. You'll focus on scaling solutions and handling complex multi-server environments.

3

Want to Specialize in Forensics?

Combine recovery skills with forensic analysis techniques. Learn to preserve evidence while recovering critical business data from compromised systems.

During your application call, we'll discuss your background and recommend the best starting point. Most students find their path becomes clearer after the first month of hands-on work.
