  • Patent number: 11436328
    Abstract: Methods and systems for safeguarding against malware such as ransomware are described. In part, the disclosure relates to systems and methods for restoring user data and other data encrypted by malware or otherwise rendered inaccessible thereby. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a method of safeguarding user data. The method includes monitoring a plurality of processes executing on a computing device; detecting when a first process of the plurality of processes attempts to modify one or more parameters of a user data file; determining if first process is a trusted process or an untrusted process using one or more heuristics; and if the first process is determined to be an untrusted process, create a backup version of the user data file, wherein the backup version of the user data file is created with regard to an unchanged version the user data file.

  • Patent number: 11334443
    Abstract: A method and system for verified data restoration in storage systems is described. The method may include calculating a hash sum relating to initial data for storing in an archive and storing the data into the archive and storing the calculated initial hash sum into a blockchain network. The method may further include retrieving the data from the archive and calculating a retrieved hash sum of the retrieved data. The method may also include comparing the initial hash sum from the blockchain network with the retrieved hash sum. The method may additionally include restoring the data from the archive if the initial hash sum is equivalent to the retrieved hash sum.

  • Publication number: 20220107869
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for selecting a backup plan based on sampled metadata. An exemplary method includes sampling metadata of files on a computer during a predetermined time interval and predicting file usage dynamics for a time interval subsequent to the predetermined time interval, based on a combination of the derivative features and the attributes of the metadata, wherein the predicted file usage dynamics indicate how the files will be utilized on the computer during the time interval. The method includes identifying on the computer at least one newly stored file, selecting a backup plan for the at least one newly stored file based on the file usage dynamics, and backing up the at least one newly stored file to a storage server according to the selected backup plan.

  • Publication number: 20220100611
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for selecting a backup plan based on sampled metadata. An exemplary method includes sampling metadata of files on a computer during a predetermined time interval, wherein the files are backed up to a storage server in accordance with a first backup plan. The method includes predicting file usage dynamics for a time interval subsequent to the predetermined time interval, based on a combination of the derivative features and the attributes of the metadata, and comparing the predicted file usage dynamics for the time interval with file usage dynamics of the predetermined time interval. In response to determining that a difference between the predicted file usage dynamics and the file usage dynamics of the predetermined time interval exceeds a threshold difference, the method includes selecting a second backup plan for the files, and backing up the files to the storage server accordingly.

  • Patent number: 11237913
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for data classification to control file backup operations. An exemplary method includes sampling metadata of one or more files on a computer at a predetermined time interval, determining whether the metadata has changed over time after a predetermined amount of metadata is collected, deriving a model of the change of the metadata over time when the metadata has changed over time, wherein the model of change is a snapshot of dynamically sampled attributes of the one or more files and reflects a state of the computer, performing an analysis of the model of change by determining features of the one or more files comprising at least file usage dynamics of the computer and a user associated with the one or more files based on the model; and selecting a backup plan for the one or more files according to the file usage dynamics.
