The software aims to help Mac users recover from system problems by rescuing data and restoring their systems.
The solution offers tools for data recovery and ships with fully automated wizards that help users back-up and restore partitions.
"In the event of a serious system malfunction, the ideal recovery solution would enable you to employ a recovery tool 'after the event to get your system up and running in as little time as possible, with no loss or corruption of your sensitive data," said Konstantin Komarov, CEO of Paragon Software Group.

The software will perform a full back-up/restore and/or file/folder rescue even if the operating system cannot be loaded, including a file browser to enable restoration of data on a file or folder basis.
The introductory Rescue Kit for Mac OS X - Lite version is available for free, The full version ships in the third quarter, the company said.
