The Secure Data Recovery Story

Founded in 2007 in Los Angeles, Secure Data Recovery started as a single-location data recovery company built out of a clear need. Too many users were losing access to critical files after hardware failures, and most computer repair shops simply didn't have the tools or expertise to recover them.

From day one, our mission has been to recover what others cannot, and we continue to deliver on that promise for every case we take on.

Fair & Transparent Pricing

We know that data recovery costs are important to customers. That is why we offer free diagnostics and quotes with our standard service. So there are no surprises. In short, the cost of data recovery depends on several factors, including the device type and the extent of physical or logical damage. These factors are unique to your case. As a result, our staff can only give an exact price once technicians assess your device inside a certified cleanroom. Once diagnosed, we present an accurate quote that reflects the time investment required for a successful recovery. We will not exceed the amount quoted for the given work. You can choose one of our flexible service options or elect not to proceed.

Data recovery services that provide flat-rate pricing are incentivized to declare devices with complex failures as a lost cause. We specialize in retrieving data that others cannot.

Excellent results and service

I sent in my MacBook Pro after it suffered severe water damage and was completely unusable. I was connected with Mark, who quickly arranged a quote, collection, a data recovery overview, and the return courier for both my laptop and an external drive. Mark was incredibly responsive and kept me updated at every step of the process. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with!

I Got It All Back.

I am so happy to have all of my family photo and video files back. I had them on two devices and somehow both of them stopped working. Johnathan helped me work through the process and pricing made it all very easy. It wasn't inexpensive, but it was definitely worth it!

SD card recovery

I had an SD card which somehow got corrupted when I plugged it into my computer in order to back up photos. Apparently this kind of problem is a risk with exfat-formatted memory devices. Scott was helpful and responsive, keeping me updated on the process. Yes it can be expensive but you are paying for a premium service and you get what you pay for. Photos of important moments are priceless. These guys are pros
