Abstract
Methods and systems for reducing the impact of malware/ransomware in a caching environment are provided. A system for reducing the impact of malware/ransomware includes a pattern detection module that identifies one or more file operations associated with one or more malicious patterns. Additionally, the one or more file operations act on data stored at a first data site. The system also includes an administration module that provides an alert to an administrator that one or more malicious patterns have been identified and determines an administration action in response to the alert. The system further includes a replication module that performs a replication action for the one or more file operations based on the administration action, wherein the replication action is performed in relation to replicated data stored at a second data site.
