Ah, sorry, bad techs. The drives should have been replaced, not wiped. In my 36 years as a tech - not something you do. Absolutely never overwrite originals until you've grabbed every last bit back.

Yup. Like cryogenics, there may be a cure in the future. Never overwrite your old drives... start fresh.

So sorry to hear this, what an incredible bummer. If smart criminals would just put their time and energy into doing something useful instead of screwing people over the world would be a better place.
I know you already got some solid advice but for others reading this thinking about their own data security I'll just +1 the advice of having the business machines offline. That and good old paper. Good luck on the recovery. |

I use a virtual private network as an attempt to guard against external hacks/attacks. Not sure if it would have helped for this, but does anyone else use this type of service?
