Computer Security and Safety

Is your computer running slower than usual? Are Pop-ups with advertising appearing out of nowhere and slowing down your PC and causing annoyance?

There are many types of malware threats and the major ones include viruses, spyware, Trojans, adware, keyloggers, worms and others. And all these threats play different roles, but have the same goal of attacking your PC. That usually leads to a sluggish PC that is unresponsive and removing this malware is critical including blocking it for good too.

You know you need a Malware Removal service when: 

• Your Computer will not boot up
• Your PC shows the Blue Screen of Death

Computer Performance

We understand how completely frustrating it is when your work is due but your computer’s performance has been compromised. And we know how costly it can be to get the right people to solve the problem and bring your PC or laptop back to life.

Some symptoms of poor computer performance include: 

·         PC slowing down for no apparent reason (even when it’s still new)

·         Takes a long time to boot

·         Pages take a long time to load in your browser

·         Your software take ages to start up before you can actually use it

·         Your email program run as slow as a snail marathon

Usually malware is the culprit in these situations. In its different forms it attacks various parts of your PC and makes it unresponsive as you attempt to complete various tasks. And it puts you in danger of losing your data and personal information to hackers and cyber criminals.

Your PC may also be sluggish because your memory and CPU resources aren’t meeting your current usage demands. And if you haven’t updated your software and upgraded the hardware in a long time then it’s likely your PC performance will be poor.

Some other reasons your computer is slow are corrupt Operating System, not enough hard drive space, left over programs and files, missing windows files or outdated drivers, computer overheating and data corruption.

It’s time to stop these problems now and for good!

Data Recovery

You have come to the right place if you have a faulty hard drive, USB or memory card and fear you may have lost your data. We are dedicated data recovery professionals with skills to recover data from all types of faulty internal hard drives, external hard drives, flash drives, and USB drives used in PCs and Macs.

Why work with Octabit?

There are many data recovery firms that claim to have the knowledge and expertise to recover your data. And some of them even promise a no-fix no-fee service and sound appealing. However, they fail to deliver the goods when it’s most needed and even waste your time when you could be working with a trusted company like Octabit.

Here’s what we promise and deliver at Octabit: 

·         On-site data recovery – We come to your home or office and carry out a full diagnosis and use our expertise to recover your data

·         Free inspection of your computer or laptop

·         We bring your hard drive back to a perfect working state

·         No-Data No-Fee – If we don’t recover your data, we won’t charge you anything

·         No hidden costs – You only pay what we’ve quoted you

Data recovery is a delicate business that requires solid expertise. It demands specialist recovery skills due to physical damage of the storage device or damage to the file system that prevents it from being mounted by the host operating system.

Most data recovery scenarios involve an operating system failure in which case the goal is to move all the data on the OS to another disk. There are programs that can accomplish this but the results are mixed.

At Octabit we follow a number of techniques in recovering data from physically damaged hardware. We know that some data may be recovered by simply replacing the hard disk and this alone may make the disk usable. However there may still be logical damage.

We use a specialised disk-imaging procedure to recover every reliable bit from the surface. Once we’ve acquired this image and saved it on a reliable medium, we then safely analyse the image for logical damage and we will possibly allow much of the original file system to be reconstructed.

We follow this and other similar techniques to recover data and we have a high success rate.
