Discover how Acronis outlines competitors with integrated cyber protection, ensuring unmatched security, backup, and recovery solutions.
One of the key elements of data protection is encryption. Users who regularly back up their files are familiar with the concept since Acronis always recommends to store data in an encrypted form. Doing so protects your data in transit to a local server or to the cloud, and it protects data when it is being stored on different media. If someone gains access to your file – either accidentally or maliciously – that person won't be able to read it or easily decrypt it if strong encryption algorithms like AES-256 are used.
Managed service providers (MSPs) are busier than ever. They’re responsible for managing and protecting an ever-growing amount of data, applications, and systems for their clients in locations that span the data center to remote home offices. Historically, this level of automation and integration was not available or required complex project and development. That changed today when Acronis and Atera announced an integration of our popular MSP solutions.
Barely a year ago, less than four percent of US workers operated mostly from home (per a Global Workspace Analytics survey, March 2019). Today, the swift global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has forced businesses overnight to transform to support a majority or near-entirety of remote work environments. Few companies were prepared to address the many new security risks arising from this sudden forced migration.
Implementing a disaster recovery (DR) program used to be hard – from getting space in a co-location data center, to redeploying depreciated hardware, to dealing with dedicated black-box hardware. Through the magic of the cloud and sophisticated software that integrates backup and orchestrates failovers to cloud-based recovery machines for production, a DR offering has now become the simplest way to increase revenues and deepen client relationships. Enabling a fully-functional managed disaster recovery as a service program, leveraging existing client backup data, can be as easy as the flip of a switch.
