  • I was always weary of backup software. It is bulky and complicated, and looks like it is designed for an astronaut. With Acronis, I finally found a tool to protect my data that I knew how to use from the first clicks.

            Frequently asked questions

            • What is anti-malware software?

              Anti-malware software is your digital shield against harmful programs that can steal, encrypt, or destroy your personal data. It actively scans your device, detects suspicious activity, and stops threats before they can do harm to your photos, documents, and sensitive information.

            • What is the difference between anti-virus and anti-malware software?

              Think of antivirus as a specialist and anti-malware as a general practitioner. Antivirus software primarily focuses on traditional computer viruses, while anti-malware provides broader protection against all types of modern threats, including ransomware, spyware, and sophisticated attacks that traditional antivirus might miss.

            • What features should I look for in the best anti-malware software?

              Look for software that offers real-time protection that actively guards your system, not only just scheduled scans. The best solutions offer ransomware protection, behavior-based detection for new threats, automatic updates, and minimal impact on your device's performance. Bonus features like secure backup and recovery options provide extra peace of mind.

            • How do I download anti-malware software?

              Get Acronis True Image, from here. The installation is quick and easy, and you'll be guided through the setup process. Once installed, it gives protection against the latest threats and you have the ability to back up all your personal photos, documents and sensitive information.

            • Why is malware protection important?

              Your devices contain your entire digital life – from irreplaceable family photos to sensitive personal documents. Modern malware can lock these files forever, steal your identity, or drain your bank account. Protection isn't optional anymore– it's essential for keeping your digital memories and data safe.

            • Can I use anti-malware software on multiple devices?

              Yes! With Acronis True Image you can protect multiple devices across different platforms, such as Windows and macOS.

            • Are free anti-malware software as good as paid versions?

              Free solutions typically offer basic protection against common threats. Paid versions provide comprehensive security with advanced features like ransomware protection, zero-day threat detection, and the possibility to make a safe copy of your personal data with automated backups. When it comes to protecting your irreplaceable photos and sensitive data, investing in complete comprehensive protection is worth it.

            • What are the risks of not using malware software for protection?

              Without protection, you're vulnerable to data theft, ransomware attacks that can lock your files forever, financial fraud, and identity theft. One successful attack could mean losing years of family photos, important documents, or even thousands of dollars. Malware nowadays is sophisticated enough to bypass basic system security, making dedicated protection essential.
