QuestionQ14

Operating backup and disaster recovery deployments

A potential ransomware attack has been detected.

Which two observations resulted in this conclusion?

Choose two
  • A You noticed a large change in the size of the Snapshot copy.
  • B You noticed a decrease in storage efficiencies such as deduplication and compression.
  • C You noticed an increase in deduplication savings but a decrease in compression savings.
  • D You noticed an increase in storage efficiencies such as deduplication and compression.
Explanation

Ransomware encryption rapidly changes many data blocks, causing Snapshot copies to grow significantly. Encrypted data also has low redundancy and is poorly compressible, so deduplication and compression storage efficiencies decrease. NetApp documents an exponential Snapshot-size increase and storage-efficiency decrease during ransomware encryption.
