• CryptoLock (and Drop It): Stopping Ransomware Attacks on User Data (2016, methodology): “Using studies that have examined the distribution of file types over an entire filesystem [16], [2] and over user document directories [22], we constructed a document corpus of 5,099 files spread over a nested directory tree with 511 total directories.”
• Secure data deduplication (2008, background): “While this is longer than the file lifetime often encountered in front-line storage [2, 22, 30], it is not as long as the indefinite lifetimes that other secure, archival systems are designed to support [33].”
