Abstract
A network storage array may detect a malware infection and report the detected infection to a monitoring system, which may monitor more than one storage array at one or more data centers via one or more array management host computing systems. Storage arrays may report to the monitoring system replication information regarding data replication operations among the arrays. The monitoring system may receive access information regarding access of the storage arrays by server host computing systems. Based on the access and replication information the monitoring system may determine, or infer, an infection of an array, or a volume of an array, which array or volume may not be capable of self-determining an infection. The monitoring system may cause a mitigation action with respect to an infected array or with respect to a server host computing system that may have accessed an infected array.
