TRAININGS

We are developers of the groundbreaking technologies for chip-off data recovery and forensics which are widely used all over the globe from small DR companies to federal law enforcement laboratories. Undoubtedly these technologies are complicated and require special skills. Our priority task is not only develop significant solutions but to teach our users implement them into their everyday work. That is why we designed tailor made training courses directed to understanding our technologies and using them with maximum effect.

Purchasing the best-of-breed technologies is only the first step.
The knack to use them with 100% efficiency is the new level.

Chip-Off StartUp 2.0

Data Recovery Expert – NEW!

Monolith Pinout Discovery

This foundational course provides a comprehensive introduction to the Chip-Off data recovery process from NAND memory devices. You’ll begin by learning how NAND memory devices work, including their structure, components, and functions. The course then guides you through the major steps and workflows of the data recovery process, demonstrating how to use Visual NAND Reconstructor to perform these tasks.
In addition to theoretical knowledge, the course includes practical exercises based on real-world cases, ensuring that you can apply what you’ve learned. This training is ideal for beginners and is essential for anyone looking to build a solid foundation in Chip-Off Data Recovery. The program is delivered through video lessons with live consultations and ongoing support.
Training Format:
Online: Video lessons for self-study with controlled practical tasks + 5 days of live consultations
Duration: 5 days
This advanced course will boost and significantly expand upon the knowledge you gained in StartUp 2.0. It is the final step in mastering your Chip-Off Data Recovery skills. This comprehensive training provides you with a wide array of complex cases and widely used controllers that every Data Recovery Expert must be able to handle, including those from Sandisk and modern Silicon Motion and Phison controllers.
The course covers data recovery from unsupported devices and specially selected complex cases with already known controllers. It shows advanced methods of VNR usage and dump analysis. Every theoretical subject on the training is explained on real practical cases. After course you can literally reverse engineer new devices yourself and get data in cases which seemed to be impossible before. The training also includes one day Hands-On skills mastering. You will discover techniques of correct memory chip unsoldering and its preparation for the further reading and recovery process, as a must-have base that every engineer using the chip-off technique needs to have at his fingertips.
Training formats: Online / On-Site

Duration: 5 days On-Site / 4 days Online (w/o Hands-on Skill Mastering part)
Devices with monolithic construction are widely produced nowadays, not only because of their small sizes but also due to their higher endurance. To solve such cases is required to find pinout and there is an always a chance that your device will have completely new one. Therefore, we have decided to prepare course mainly focused on pinout analysis and data recovery from monolithic devices. MPD training includes all information you need to work with monolithic devices. It consists of multiple training cases for analysis of signals and presents full methodology of pinout preparation which is examine on practical hands on case with physical device.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING

I have been on many training courses over the last few years, and the start-up training was by far the most useful and technically in depth training out of all the other courses I have ever been on. The training slides, along with Igor’s in depth knowledge and the fact he could provide one to one support as needed was first class. What I have learnt in the last three days is going to be infinitely useful to so many of the cases that I work on, and I have four cases that have been waiting on me to complete this training, so my new knowledge will be put to use straight away. Please pass on my thanks to Igor, and I look forward to attending the Advanced training in the very near future!

Leading edge technology that changed my NAND world.
VNR´s visual approach changed my view. It’s like going from blind to see the world in full color. When you see and understand planes, block, pages and structures all makes sense and data is not many “clicks” away.
Training by ruSolut is highly recommended, you will get all needed information and additionally deep background knowledge to help you understand.
With VNR, training and ruSolut support at your side, you are ready to recover even the toughest cases.
For me its “lego” in NAND world – build what you need.

Allan Sørensen

25 years ago many people had VHS on their home, most people just play videos and they was happy. Few of them used for record from open broadcasting and less read the manual and use it for record they favorite promgrams when they were out of home by programming record autonomus or copy movies helped with some tricks. In my case this Is how I feel.
This training give me more idea how NAND tech works, how use VNR for recovery and more important, what basics I need to improve.
I’m complete sure the theory and examples are only the “beggining”, for complement we need a lot of practice then go next level and so on an so on until deepest.
Thank you Rusolut Team.

Xilics – Digital Data Care

In those 5 days I learned more about flash concepts and devices than in the few years I have been working with it by myself. Sasha is a great instructor who breaks ideas down so they may be understood from the ground up. Classes were small enough to have one on one time with him and all my questions were answered. Monolithic and BGA soldering techniques were also covered which was very helpful since I get many of those cases now. After returning home I immediately was able solve two new flash cases that were waiting for me from beginning to end with no additional assistance. I highly recommend attending Rusolut’s training courses if you want to learn how to start mastering flash yourself!

David Edwards
Data Analyzers

In this course we have learned how to recover NAND type memory chips in an intuitive and visual way. As its name suggests, the VNR is a very visual tool which greatly facilitates recovery work. In just three days of course we have learned the theory about the recovery of NAND chips and its implementation through different example cases that raised all kinds of problems that these chips can present. Thanks to this we see ourselves capable to recover any case that comes to us.
