Abstract
Techniques for detecting security issues in a storage array are disclosed. A service receives, from a host, an indication of compromise (IOC) reflecting that the host is suspected of being compromised. In response, the service refrains from turning on inline IO checking. In lieu of turning on the inline IO checking, the service triggers monitoring of previous snapshots stored on a specific storage device in the array to detect a trail of a possible attack. The service provides a notification to a centralized security system of the possible attack on the specific storage device. The notification is structured to operate as a triggering mechanism to cause the centralized security system to identify a second storage array that is in communication with the host and to further cause the centralized security system to instruct the second storage array to search for a second possible attack on the second storage array.
