A network system comprises a first component, a second component, and a system for self-optimization. The system for self-optimization comprises an interface and a processor. The interface is configured to receive a performance indication from the first component. The processor is configured to determine a configuration change for the second component according to a set of configuration rules.

Autonomic self-optimization of protection storage

A computer system is monitored via malware detection modules deployed throughout input/output layers of the computer system. Each malware detection module is configured to detect activity associated with malware present in the computer system. Upon detection of malware activity in one or more input/output layers of the computer system, one or more of the malware detection modules generate and send respective messages reporting the detected activity to a central malware alert engine. The one or more messages are received at the central malware alert engine from the one or more malware detection modules. In response to the one or more received messages, the central malware alert engine alerts one or more portions of a data protection system of the computer system to enable the data protection system to take one or more remedial actions to protect the computer system from the malware present in the computer system.

Malware detection and data protection integration

Techniques for reducing and discouraging sending large scale emails are described herein. According to one embodiment, in response to a first email received from a sender to be sent to a list of recipients, a distribution cost of the first email is determined based on content of the first email and the recipients. An email client application is to present a first graphical user interface (GUI) page to the sender prompting a confirmation from the sender, where the first GUI page includes information indicating a size of the first email and a number of recipients, if the distribution cost of the first email is above a first predetermined threshold. In response to a positive confirmation from the sender, the first email is sent to the intended recipient.
