The Acronis Global Cyber Summit has offered a wide variety of new opportunities and experiences for the cyber protection community – innovative product announcements, inspiring speeches, and insightful panels of experts. But amidst all these crucial takeaways came an inspiring moment when the cyber protection community could give back.

Last night, the Acronis Cyber Foundation held an exclusive Charity Reception and, through the generous donations of the hundreds who attended and offered support online, raised more than $30,000. All of these funds will be used to finance the construction of a new school in Nicaragua – creating an opportunity that will change the lives of children who desperately need it.

Renowned IT experts took to the stage at the Acronis Global Cyber Summit to discuss their experiences, insights, and predictions into the future of cyber protection. If you weren’t able to join us in person and missed out on the livestreams of these events, here are the biggest, most exciting moments to take away from the keynote speeches so far.

Learn what these IT innovators shared with the cyber protection community and how your organization can use their insights to get #CyberFit.

The largest gathering of cyber protection professionals officially gets underway today at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach Resort in Florida, as the Acronis Global Cyber Summit 2019 kicks off.

After months of anticipation, the cyber protection revolution starts in earnest with more than 1,000 registrants – including cybersecurity experts, CIOs, IT pros, MSPs, value-added resellers, and ISVs and developers – joining the two-and-a-half-day conference in order to explore modern approaches to protecting critical data assets and systems.  

The next couple of days promise to be highly educational and entertaining, so let’s look at some of the anticipated highlights that will happen between now and Wednesday.

Acronis was honored to be featured in this year’s Gartner 2019 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Datacenter Backup and Recovery Solutions.

Admittedly, we were disappointed to see our position on the quadrant – especially given our unique vision and successful practical execution of fusing cybersecurity with backup in order to establish a new standard of comprehensive protection: Cyber Protection.

Then again, visionaries and innovators rarely fit existing metrics – instead we influence the standards that drive the future of their industries.

Let’s take a moment to examine Acronis’ position in the Enterprise Backup and Recovery sector.
