A proactive approach to data resilience requires identifying threats at the first possible opportunity, before they can infiltrate your systems and wreak havoc. IBM scientists and engineers have recently developed new techniques for scanning data as it arrives inside an IBM FlashSystem array, measuring the entropy or randomness of the data to help identify specific kinds of encrypted data that could be evidence of malware. IBM Fellow Andy Walls explains how this kind of technology could help organizations protect themselves from current and future malware infections.
