An information management system includes one or more client computing devices in communication with a storage manager and a secondary storage computing device. The storage manager manages the primary data of the one or more client computing devices and the secondary storage computing device manages secondary copies of the primary data of the one or more client computing devices. Each client computing device may be configured with a ransomware protection monitoring application that monitors for changes in their primary data. The ransomware protection monitoring application may input the changes detected in the primary data into a machine-learning classifier, where the classifier generates an output indicative of whether a client computing device has been affected by malware and/or ransomware. Using a virtual machine host, a virtual machine copy of an affected client computing device may be instantiated using a secondary copy of primary data of the affected client computing device.
