Abstract: Subject matter related to data management is disclosed. A most recent snapshot in a snapshot chain that is not infected by malware may be identified based on mounting snapshots in the snapshot chain and determining whether the snapshots are infected. A selection of an infected snapshot may be received, where the infected snapshot may be more recent than the identified most recent snapshot. The selected infected snapshot may be mounted.
