MSP Pioneer Answers the Question: Why Did You Join Acronis
As an MSP, I was always looking for better tools, tools that would ultimately help me deliver a higher level of service to my clients. As expensive as it is to change tools, if the benefits outweighed the pain of switching, I was all over it. Today, protecting your clients from cyberthreats has become a full-time job. Exploits are created every minute of every day, making it practically impossible for most IT service providers to keep pace to counter them all. Now more than ever, MSPs need modern tools to manage modern threats.

Announcing the 2020 MSP Cybersecurity Readiness Survey Results
During the first quarter of 2020, Acronis commissioned Omdia (formerly Ovum) to conduct a survey of managed service providers (MSPs) to explore the trends in managed security and backup. The goal of the study was to get an up-to-date view on what cybersecurity and backup services are currently offered, what features matter most, what future plans they might have to expand their offerings, and what business, operational, and technical challenges make it harder for MSPs to execute. Naturally, we also wanted the perspective of MSPs and real data about the IT channel’s capabilities and concerns before launching Acronis Cyber Platform. It seems we’ve rolled out this new service just in time.

What You Need to Know About Remote Work: Encrypt Everything
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.

Announcing the Integration of Atera’s Powerful PSA and RMM Suite for MSPs with Acronis Cyber Cloud
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.

Secure Your Work-From-Home Employees and Use Zoom More Safely with Acronis Cyber Protect
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.

The Secret Shortcut to a Disaster Recovery as a Service Offering

The Secret Shortcut to a Disaster Recovery as a Service Offering
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.
