A method of storage system operation, and related computer-readable media and storage system are disclosed. One or more processors or storage system controllers monitor accesses of blocks of storage memory of the storage system. The monitoring is to detect one or more characteristics of the accesses of the blocks. From the characteristic(s), it is determined the one or more accesses of the blocks are indicative of a malicious action. In response to such determining, the storage system performs a reaction action.
