Abstract:

In order to alleviate the impact of ransomware in LAN, this paper proposes a SSD-based defense technology, which uses a host with a large-capacity SSD as a server, and uses network drive mapping technology to share with other hosts in the LAN to further utilize the solid state. Moreover, this paper utilized the out-of-place of the SSD and modified garbage collection for data backup, and a binary search method is proposed for data recovery. The experimental results of the prototype system show that this scheme can recover the data attacked by the ransomware quickly and effectively, and its impact of the read and write performance is samll.

Key words: Ransomware, SSD, LAN, data backup, data recovery
