Discover how Acronis outlines competitors with integrated cyber protection, ensuring unmatched security, backup, and recovery solutions.
Small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) struggled through a fretful year of sudden pandemic-driven changes: employees forced to work from home, sensitive data abruptly moved to cloud-based SaaS applications, and a baffling array of new cyberthreats – including 350,000 new malware threats being identified every day and a 400% increase in cybercrime last year being reported by the FBI. For 2021, that last challenge is particularly daunting: few SMBs are capable of keeping pace with a daily barrage of ransomware attacks, tech supply-chain incursions like the SolarWinds breach, and severe vulnerabilities like Microsoft’s recent Exchange Server fiasco – especially in light of their paltry tech budgets and headcount. SMBs are desperate to outsource these problems, and that presents a huge opportunity for MSPs willing to step up and help.
While leaving legacy IT solutions and approached behind can be daunting it’s essential to modern cyber protection. To help individuals, organizations, and service providers looking to modernize their cyber protection after this year’s Cyber Protection Week, we’re recommending five initial steps to help make the transition to modern cyber protection easier and more affordable.
Traditional backup and cybersecurity solutions can’t fully protect modern data and devices. Data loss is on the rise for individual IT users and IT professionals because outdated solutions are being applied to today’s cyberthreats. It’s time to rethink how you approach cyber protection. Check out how to get started with this infographic.
Our Cyber Protection Week Global Report shows that organizations are still grappling with the changes sparked by COVID and the modern cyberthreat landscape. They’re aware of the challenges facing them but their strategies to overcome them simply aren’t working. For IT service providers offering modern cyber protection solutions, these findings represent a significant opportunity to deliver more reliable, comprehensive, and effective protection and unlock expanded revenue streams along the way.
