ActionFront Releases the Data Emergency Guide

Data Loss victims now have a definitive resource showing exactly what to do and what NOT to do when coping with disasters that bring down computers, servers and backups.

TORONTO -- April 8, 2002 --ActionFront Data Recovery Labs, a world leader in data recovery, today released the Data Emergency Guide. Available as a free download at www.actionfront.com, the Guide is also available as a limited edition hard copy for computer professionals and end-users.

While major disasters such as floods, fires and terrorist attacks garner the most attention; most data emergencies occur for more mundane reasons such as power problems, device failures and user errors.

Panic is a common reaction to a data loss emergency, often spawning actions that further degrade the situation. The Data Emergency Guide will help computer users identify a data loss situation and then provide a step-by-step workbook that will assist the user to preserve and protect their digital media (such as hard drives and tapes) until a professional can properly diagnose and resolve the problem.

Nick Majors, President of ActionFront, states, Insights gleaned from our 13 years of experience saving customers data are contained in this guide. It is a good idea to read this guide while your computer systems are running smoothly, or if you are having problems, just stop what you are doing now and get a copy. We have seen too many data emergencies that have a good prospect for recovery, turned into total data disasters during the first few hours of a data loss situation."
