Businesses of all kinds face a rapidly changing cybersecurity landscape that makes managing security both risky and complex. Generative AI is making malware more potent and phishing scams more convincing. Hybrid work continues to challenge IT professionals as users mix business and home environments, while compliance remains a major issue for many organizations. Tight budgets mean IT departments need to do more with less.

The latest update to Acronis Cyber Protect delivers the features and functionality needed to not only protect and back up data but also ease the burden of cybersecurity, endpoint management and compliance.

Acronis Cyber Protect delivers protection and much more

Acronis Cyber Protect enables IT professionals and business leaders to tackle those challenges with natively integrated backup, endpoint management and cybersecurity. The latest update to Acronis Cyber Protect focuses on easing the security burden for IT professionals by enabling vendor consolidation and reducing complexity, as well as cutting costs and boosting data protection and compliance.

The latest update features important new and refreshed capabilities, including:

  • Agentless backup for Azure VMs: Seamless backup of Azure virtual machines without the need for additional agents.
  • Unlimited storage for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace: Unlimited storage options for these popular platforms can reduce costs and make capacity worries a thing of the past.
  • Reinforced secure backup and rapid recovery: Strengthened, integrated anti-ransomware technologies ensure businesses their data is protected and can be quickly recovered in the event of a cyber incident.
  • Updated comprehensive security capabilities: Streamlined and prioritized endpoint detection and response (EDR), and URL filtering to enhance security measures.
  • Advanced endpoint management: AI-powered Cyber Scripting eases management burdens and protects data by automating routine tasks, securing remote troubleshooting and providing full visibility of hardware and software assets.

Cross-NIST protection enables businesses to meet compliance requirements 

Acronis Cyber Protect is fully aligned with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, covering the full cybersecurity lifecycle, from vulnerability identification to recovery, ensuring compliance with industry best practices and regulations.

With cross-NIST protection, businesses have the capability to more easily and efficiently meet increasingly stringent compliance requirements.

Why the capabilities in Acronis Cyber Protect are important

As always, Acronis Cyber Protect provides natively integrated capabilities that deliver comprehensive cybersecurity protection in a single solution. The latest release further bolsters these valuable features.

Real-time threat monitoring and automated backup recovery deliver unified cyberthreat detection and response. A single console simplifies management by enabling administrators to manage security, backup and endpoints in the same place. One-Click Recovery™ and prebackup malware scanning give IT professionals assurance that their data is always protected and ready to restore with minimal downtime.

Acronis Cyber Protect offers efficiency and cost reduction

With those capabilities in place, businesses can eliminate functional silos and management of multiple tools with a unified platform for real-time threat detection, response and recovery. A single, comprehensive solution lowers costs, simplifies management and greatly reduces the need for IT training.

Natively integrated backup, cybersecurity and endpoint management also ensure a rapid recovery post cyber incident is possible, as well as a reduction in the risk of gaps in protection due to reliance on multiple point solutions.

In an uncertain cybersecurity climate, Acronis Cyber Protect continues to deliver the certainty of a natively integrated, comprehensive cybersecurity solution that provides protection, efficiency and cost savings.
