Hello,

In my environment, v11.24.34, i have Ransomware Protection enabled on all of my Media Agents. My Security Team have asked me is it possible to test the integrity of the backups prior to restoration to be confident that it is free from malware.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Regards

Fergus

Hi @Fergus 

Just to be clear on what you are asking.
Are you asking to validate if there is no ransomware active on the disklibrary/media agent or do you want to validate if there is no ransomware within the backup data?

Hi @Jos Meijer ,

I want to validate if there is no ransomware within the backup data.

Thanks

There currently is no option to scan within the backup data.

The best way is to have a recovery area which is isolated, perform a recovery, scan the environment with a 3rd party scan tool and if all checks are OK then recover to production

Thanks @Jos Meijer
