This keeps the team at the front of the pack in motorsports fastest, and fastest-growing, competition.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/how-nio-formula-e-team-employs-ai-slicker-pit-work/)

In this article, we’ll dissect Sodinokibi, shine a light on how it works, and review how you can protect your system from this threat.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/sodinokibi-ransomware/)

But in the modern world, data is so critical that many businesses are working to reduce RTOs even further, and with good reason. Today a business that doesn’t have access to its data can lose $100,000 every hour, in addition to the potentially huge costs of recovering that data.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/3-steps-restore-your-server-mere-minutes/)

And with the global managed services market expected to hit $282 billion by 2021, it’s no surprise IT consultants and technology resellers are wondering: What are managed IT services really? Could it be a way to expand my business and get a piece of that pie?](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/managed-it-services/)

In addition to the ransom paid, officials also invested more than $900,000 into new hardware in the hopes that they do not have the same vulnerabilities as the old ones. That’s $1.5 million in damages from one attack.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/ransomware-attack-costs-15-million-riviera-beach-fl/)

They recently announced they were retiring thanks to the money they’ve made encrypting victims’ computers. At the beginning of June, operators of the notorious GandCrab strain of ransomware announced that “all good things come to an end” and they are ceasing their operations. Unfortunately the success they reported will likely provide a roadmap for other cybercriminals that will continue for a long time.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/cashing-crime-gandcrab-may-end-threat-ransomware-continues/)

Almost every industry and every size of organization have been hit — including governments, retailers, universities, and healthcare systems. What’s worse, affected businesses suffer both financial and reputational losses while being dragged into the news cycles. It’s clear that organizations and employees are not CyberFit enough to meet today’s data security and privacy challenges. Let’s look at how the landscape has changed and what organizations need to do to become CyberFit.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/why-your-organization-and-team-members-need-be-cyberfit/)

Production at ASCO, the giant Belgian airplane parts maker, has been halted for over a week with no end in sight. Nearly 1,000 employees have been sent home on paid leave while the company struggles to restore critical systems frozen by the malware assault. Unfortunately, the fate of ASCO has been shared by many organizations that are ill-prepared to combat the world’s deadliest malware threat. The incident reflects a number of major trends in the ongoing struggle between cybercriminals and their targets in the public and private sector.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/ransomware-crushes-another-manufacturing-industry-target/)

[25 May 2019 — 3 min read ![Image 11: Acronis SDI Update Available to Counter the MDS Vulnerabilities in Intel Processors](https://staticfiles.acronis.com/images/blog-cover/bd62a55daae50fdec0d6a6b238034607.png) Acronis SDI Update Available to Counter the MDS Vulnerabilities in Intel Processors Last week it was revealed that certain Intel processors contain a new set of hardware vulnerabilities that enables “speculative execution attacks”. In these attacks, a malicious app or guest virtual machine gains access to the data stored inside CPU buffers – allowing hackers to bypass the security restrictions on the system. The bad news: The researchers who found the MDS bug say it likely affects all Intel CPUs released since 2011 – and as a result, Acronis Software-Defined Infrastructure could be exposed to an attack. The good news: As soon as the problem was identified, Acronis immediately developed a fix so your data won’t be at risk once you’ve installed the update.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/acronis-sdi-update-available-counter-mds-vulnerabilities-intel-processors/)

In that time, the ideas of cloud computing, cloud storage, and cloud services have been depicted alternately as a fad and as the future of IT, as compellingly easy-to-use and unapproachably complex, and as woefully unsafe and more secure than traditional computing.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/secure-cloud-service/)
