Abstract
Example implementations described herein are directed to systems and methods to accelerating the time to identify the latest snapshot that is not infected by malware and swap the snapshot for an underlying volume for a host computer without needing to communicate with the storage administrator of the storage system. In example implementations described herein, an iterative process is utilized to traverse snapshots through a storage plug-in application until such a snapshot is identified. Through the example implementations described herein, such snapshots can be identified quickly in comparison to manual selection.
