Partition recovery method and apparatus
Abstract:
Provided is a technology which searches an unallocated area to quickly extract information on a deleted partition when checking a disk and an evidence image in digital forensic, and adds a recovered partition to a forensic tool as a new partition. For this, the technology has direct access to the sector of a disk or an evidence image which is obtained, limits information search on an unallocated area only to an area satisfying the minimum size in which a partition may be created, changes an LBA-based sector access scheme into a CHS-based sector access scheme, and reads only the sector of a location having the possibility that a boot record exists to search information of a deleted partition, recovering a partition at high speed.
