Acronis named in 2024 CRN Security 100 list for the third consecutive year

We are excited to announce that Acronis was recognized on the 2024 CRN Security 100 list for the third year in a row. This is a remarkable achievement that backs our commitment to delivering channel-focused, comprehensive cyberdefense that solves the security challenges of modern service providers facing advanced cyberthreats.

CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, is a trusted source for IT channel news, analysis and insights that spotlights industry-leading security vendors.  

To receive recognition on the CRN Security 100 list, the publication’s editors carefully identified channel-friendly cybersecurity vendors across various market segments and company sizes. The list includes top-tier security heavy hitters as well as growing startups. Companies were selected based on a blend of cybersecurity technology and services that are well designed for both partners and their clients.

The Security 100 list is compiled annually, and each year CRN’s evaluation pinpoints 100 recommended vendors to help solution providers discover the best-fit cybersecurity solutions.

This year, the CRN Security 100 list consisted of offerings across specific security categories:

·       Endpoint and managed security.

·       Identity, access and data security.

·       Network security.

·       Security operations.

·       Risk and threat intelligence.

·       Web, email and application security.

A three-time featured security vendor in CRN Security 100 list, Acronis continues this streak in 2024 by being named one of the coolest identity access management and data security companies according to the CRN. This latest achievement backs the channel’s praise for Acronis’ active innovation and enhancements of its MSP-centric solution, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud that helps service providers deliver integrated, comprehensive cyber protection across numerous workloads on a single solution. Notably, this integration empowers MSPs to build a holistic ecosystem of protection and unify with third-party vendor solutions.

After a year that met with significant GenAI development, CRN also acknowledges a shift in focus to newly available technologies that address AI-accelerated attacks. 

Security analysts, vendors and service providers alike are taking AI-powered ransomware as a serious threat to business continuity. Acronis is pioneering AI- and machine learning-based security technology; in fact, we have been using machine learning since 2017. We continue to leverage AI-based detection to enhance Acronis Advanced Security + EDR for MSPs.

We also bring cost-effective security solutions to MSPs to simplify protection, improve efficiency and bolster cyber resilience. We have merged security and EDR to offer unmatched value to MSPs and their clients while also helping to consolidate technology stacks, close security gaps, improve visibility and easily manage protection from one console.

Additionally, we now offer collaboration app security and we protect Microsoft 365 environments. With Advanced Email Security, we are taking a stance against advanced phishing, content-based attacks, social engineering techniques and other sophisticated threats by not only protecting email inboxes, but also the productivity applications MSPs and their clients depend on.
