Snapshot Delta Metric Based Determination of a Possible Ransomware Attack Against Data Maintained by a Storage System

Abstract:

An illustrative method includes a data protection system determining a delta metric between a first recovery dataset generated by a storage system at a first time and a second recovery dataset generated by the storage system at a second time subsequent to the first time and determining, based on the delta metric, whether data maintained by the storage system is possibly being targeted by a security threat.
