Acronis, a global leader in cyber protection, and TAS Group Cloud Services, a Sophia-Antipolis-based hosting and outsourcing company with its own data centers in France and Europe, have agreed on a technological partnership.

The two companies are joining forces in response to increasing cyberattacks, and reveal a new offering dedicated to cybersecurity in view of the continuous development of remote work, and the need for data protection.

This partnership allows TAS Group Cloud Services to expand its data protection offering by providing the Acronis solution to all its customers and partners. TAS Group has expanded its portfolio of data protection solutions to include backup, business continuity, antivirus protection, AI-driven next-generation antimalware protection, patch management and endpoint protection.

Vincent Burgevin, in charge of marketing and partnerships for TAS Group Cloud Services explains that this partnership is strategic and has great potential for the hosting company offering outsourcing services. "As a specialist in the hosting of sensitive data, we must be attentive to new threats and keep our catalog of security solutions always up to date to provide the best advice and protection to our customers. Combining TAS's hosting and cloud computing solutions with Acronis's cybersecurity and management solutions brings undeniable added value."

Francesco De Simoni, General Manager at TAS France adds: "Cyber protection and data protection are no longer just a desirable asset for companies, but a real necessity. We are delighted with this partnership which enables us to offer to our customers many benefits that combine improved customer experience with increased security and cyber resilience."

In addition to natively integrating cybersecurity services, the Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud offers peace of mind to its users by simplifying management and automation through a single console. There is no need to juggle solutions anymore: companies can now free up time to focus on their core business.

Thanks to Acronis and TAS Group Cloud Services, Côte d'Azur businesses can now take advantage of a complete range of Cloud Services, managed services, cybersecurity and management solutions that neutralize cyberthreats through antimalware protection and (automated) patch management services. This solution will replace traditional antivirus tools with comprehensive endpoint protection.

We will combine know-how to offer in France quality and state-of-art solution in cyber security cloud to an important player in the hosting, cloud computing and IT services", said Jerome Carletti, Partner Account Manager at Acronis.
