Abstract
Embodiments for a system and method of selecting data protection policies for a new system, by collecting user, policy, and asset metadata for a plurality of other users storing data dictated by one or more protection policies. The collected metadata is anonymized with respect to personal identifying information, and is stored in an anonymized analytics database. The system receives specific user, policy and asset metadata for the new system from a specific user, and matches the received specific user metadata to the collected metadata to identify an optimum protection policy of the one or more protection policies based on the assets and protection requirements of the new system. The new system is then configured with the identified optimum protection policy as an initial configuration.
