We wanted to know their current thinking about and approach to keeping data and systems safe, accessible, private, authentic, and secure (SAPAS) today. And the results are revealing for our service provider partners too, shedding light on what their clients are particularly concerned with – and investing in – when it comes to protection today. Here’s a quick look at how these pros approach data protection, what’s keeping them up at night given the current threat landscape, and what can be done so they can rest easier.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/world-cyber-protection-week-survey-reveals-most-it-pros-back-their-data-still-cant-sleep-night/)

And while there’s a great deal personal users, IT professionals, and service providers can learn from these survey findings, viewing them in a silo ignores some important, broader context. To offer a clearer picture of what this year’s survey means, we’ve compared our 2020 findings with responses from personal users and IT professionals in all of our previous survey iterations. This comparison presents a robust perspective of how data-defense priorities have evolved over time, and how cyber protection’s modern, comprehensive approach to safeguarding data, applications, and systems is poised to become even more necessary in the months and years ahead.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/how-cyber-protection-trends-are-evolving-2020/)

This year’s results paint a clear picture: People and organizations are acutely aware of the risks on the horizon but they are much less certain about how to easily, efficiently, and securely prepare for and overcome them. Let’s dive into the findings of our 2020 survey.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/results-are-cyber-protection-week-2020-survey/)

Unfortunately, today’s situation is no exception: most concerning is the vulnerability of healthcare facilities such as hospitals, where the systems that care for patients and lab work are often linked. Acronis believes we have a responsibility to the public, so we need to warn everyone: we foresee a further increase in ransomware attacks targeting private and government hospital systems in the coming weeks.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/acronis-warns-coronavirus-will-increase-cyberattacks-against-healthcare-targets/)

People are scared, people are uncertain, and we don’t know what’s going to come next. That’s why, when speaking to Larry Walsh, CEO of 2112 Group today about the research they did regarding the pandemic’s impact on the channel, it was refreshing to hear a message of hope amid the constant stream of negativity coming at us – seemingly from every direction.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/covid-19s-impact-channel-chat-larry-walsh/)

The need for people to work from home when possible has become critical for businesses that may have never considered the option before. As a cyber protection company, we believe strongly in protecting data, applications, and systems at all times – even when employees are working from home. As a result, the executive team at Acronis has decided to make our secure, enterprise-grade file sync and share technology available for free to partners so that organizations can remain both productive and secure during this challenging period.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/covid-19-response-enabling-secure-work-home-operations/)

When it comes to delivering IT services, the stakes are even higher because service providers have to deliver the IT solutions that keep their clients in business. Unfortunately, whether the limitation comes from budget, staff or time constraints, or an unexpected global health threat like the novel coronavirus Covid-19, there’s always something that blocks access to the information that can optimize your work and help grow your business. That changes with our no-fee, no-travel Acronis Cyber Protection Virtual Conference, which features an eye-catching group of IT leaders and seasoned service providers who share practical, actionable insights – and explain why they believe cyber protection is the way forward.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/empowering-msps-it-and-channel-leaders-present-two-virtual-conferences-spring/)
