Abstract
A computer-implemented method can be used for restoring a computer system following an infection event. The computer system can have a plurality of machines, in which a plurality of back-up copies are associated with each one of the plurality of machines, and in which each of the plurality of back-up copies associated with a particular machine is a different version back-up. The method can include searching the plurality of back-up copies to identify one or more clean-back-up copies that do not comprise a signature of the infection event and restoring one or more of the plurality of machines using a respective clean-back-up copy.
