Dell CloudIQ is a powerful application used to track system health through pattern recognition and advanced analytics. Through CloudIQ cybersecurity, users can define legal configurations for PowerMax, monitor the system, and receive alerts if the array is out of compliance. CloudIQ can also track data patterns and detect anomalies, including changes to data reduction rates, to determine whether ransomware or malware may have infected the system. When suspicious anomalies are detected, CloudIQ alerts users to take corrective action.
