The method may mount the received backup slice as a virtual disk. The method may detect, for the respective computing device, a change between the mounted virtual disk and any number of previous backup slices and may evaluate the change against behavioral rules to identify malicious behavior. In response to determining that the change exhibits malicious behavior, the method may execute a remediation action to prevent an attack on the plurality of computing devices or the centralized storage.
