IsoBuster is a data recovery computer program by Smart Projects, a Belgian company founded in 1995 by Peter Van Hove.[2] As of version 3.0,[3] it can recover data from damaged file systems or physically damaged disks including optical discs,[4] hard disk drives, USB flash drives and solid-state disks.[5] It has the ability to access "deleted" data on multisession optical discs,[6] and allows users to access disc images[7] (including ISO, BIN and NRG) and to extract files in the same way that they would from a ZIP archive. IsoBuster is also often used by law enforcement and data forensics experts.[8][9][10][11][12]
