Abstract
Determining which snapshot deltas tend to occur in: (i) healthy virtual machines (VMs) that have been subject to an attack yet remained healthy, and/or (ii) unhealthy VMs that have apparently been adversely affected by an attack. Snapshot deltas that occur in at least some (or more preferably all) of the healthy VM subset provide information about software changes (for example, updates, configuration changes) that may be helpful. Snapshot deltas that occur in at least some (or more preferably all) of the unhealthy VM subsets provide information about software changes (for example, updates, configuration changes) that may be unhelpful.
