R&D: Restoring Data in SSDs Damaged by Crushing and Falling

IEEE Xplore has published, in 2018 13th Iberian Conference on Information Systems and Technologies (CISTI) proceedings, an article written by Geovanni Ninahualpa, Carolina Perez, Sang Guun Yoo, Teresa Guarda, Departamento de Ciencias de la Computación, Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE, Sangolquí, Ecuador, Javier Diaz, Dario Piccirilli, Facultad de Informática, Universidad Nacional de La Plata, La Plata, Argentina.

Abstract: “This document proposes to analyze the contribution of File Carving techniques in the recovery of data in solid state devices (Solid State Drive – SSD) that have been affected by crush and fall scenarios with different strengths. For this purpose, Semantic Carving and Fragment Recovery Carving techniques have been used. Obtaining results categorized in the metrics: number of files recovered, number of valid files recovered, number of partially recovered files, number of false positives. Finally, the results obtained are compared by applying the mathematical model of linear regression.“
