Discover how Acronis outlines competitors with integrated cyber protection, ensuring unmatched security, backup, and recovery solutions.
Acronis has moved away from big, version-based launches of the Acronis Cyber Cloud platform, and switched to a new cadence of monthly updates to the MSP services platform. Since the 9.0 release, when Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud was introduced, there have already been two product updates —July’s release is the third. These rapid improvements brought a number of highly demanded cyber protection features to help you successfully adjust your clients to working remotely without sacrificing their protection. Going forward, we’ll have smaller but more frequent releases. This approach will simplify and speed up the adoption of new capabilities — each release will have fewer changes, making it easier to learn and implement. The shortened planning and development cycle will enable us to quickly address changes in the current work environment, so we can deliver the most demanded features and innovations in Acronis products every month.
With the release of Acronis Cyber Protect in Q2 2020, Acronis joined AV-Comparatives’ annual test of business security solutions. AV-Comparatives is a world-famous independent testing organization, which was established in Austria in 1999. Certification by AV-Comparatives provides an official, globally recognized seal of approval for software performance. The first half-year report by AV-Comparatives was just released, and Acronis received the prestigious Approved Business Security badge -- delivering a 98% detection rate and zero false positives.
At Acronis, we’re constantly monitoring for dangers to your data, introducing fixes for newly-discovered vulnerabilities, and issuing alerts and recommendations to help you stay protected. The threat landscape is ever-shifting, and our global network of Acronis Cyber Protection Operations Centers (CPOCs) works round the clock to proactively detect and defend against malware, viruses, and cryptojacking. Our work to keep you informed of hazards in the digital landscape now includes Acronis’ YouTube channel because we recently launched a new series of video updates that summarize the latest threats straight from our CPOCs. Here’s a look at some of the recent breaking news and analysis.
Research by Kevin Reed, Acronis CISO; Alex Koshelev, Acronis Security Researcher; Ravikant Tiwari, Acronis Senior Security Researcher When a security manufacturer learns of critical vulnerabilities in their devices, there is an expectation they’ll act quickly to fix the problem. Yet August 2019 became the first of the many months when Acronis would patiently wait for an update (in vain, as it turns out) from one manufacturer in particular.
