Backup is not the outcome. Recovery is.
When critical data becomes unavailable, businesses need more than a completed backup job. They need confidence that their data is protected, available and ready for recovery.
That is why Acronis is introducing the Anti-Ransomware Recovery Warranty for eligible customers using Acronis Cloud Storage.
The capability adds a clear recovery commitment to the secure cloud storage foundation customers already rely on. If a data-threatening event affects protected data, Acronis stands behind the recoverability of qualifying recovery points.
A secure foundation for recovery
Acronis Cloud Storage is designed for secure, scalable backup and disaster recovery. It gives businesses and MSPs a purpose-built place to store recovery-critical data while reducing the complexity of managing separate storage providers.
Acronis Cloud Storage supports:
- Encryption for data in transit and at rest
- Geo-redundant storage
- Malware scanning
- Immutable backups
- Integrated backup, storage, and recovery management
- Scalable capacity for growing environments
These capabilities help protect recovery points from the threats that can make data unavailable, including cyberattacks, accidental deletion, corruption and operational failure.
From protected storage to trusted recovery
A backup is only valuable if it can be recovered. The warranty applies at the recovery-point level and covers qualifying endpoint disk, volume and file archives.
To qualify for coverage, a recovery point must:
- Be stored in Acronis Cloud Storage
- Be protected by two-factor authentication
- Use immutable storage with Compliance mode enabled
- Be validated using an approved method, such as a checksum, screenshot or heartbeat
- Be maintained under an active applicable Acronis service
These requirements create multiple layers of protection around each recovery point. They help ensure that backup data remains available, protected from unauthorized changes and ready for recovery.
The event itself does not have to be ransomware. Cyberattacks, human error, data corruption, failed backups, system failures and other disruptions may threaten access to protected data. When the requirements are met, Acronis guarantees that the qualifying recovery point will be recoverable under the Warranty Policy.
One platform for protection and recovery
Managing backup and storage through separate vendors can create unnecessary complexity. It can mean multiple consoles, contracts, support channels and points of failure.
Acronis Cloud Storage brings backup, storage and recovery management together through one integrated experience. MSPs and IT teams can manage protected data in one place, apply consistent policies and build a more reliable recovery process.
The result is a simpler operational model and a stronger foundation for business continuity.
Confidence for MSPs
For MSPs, Acronis Cloud Storage creates a stronger customer value proposition.
Customers do not buy backup jobs. They buy confidence that their data will come back.
The Anti-Ransomware Recovery Warranty helps MSPs make recovery a visible part of the service they deliver. It supports a clearer conversation about protection, readiness and business continuity while helping standardize recovery practices across customer environments.
MSPs can use Acronis Cloud Storage to:
- Offer a stronger recovery commitment.
- Build trust around a measurable outcome.
- Standardize protection across customers.
- Simplify backup and storage management.
- Differentiate their services in a competitive market.
Do not sell storage alone. Sell confidence that protected data will be recoverable.
Confidence for corporate IT teams
For corporate IT teams, the warranty adds another layer of assurance to the recovery strategy.
IT leaders can use Acronis Cloud Storage to protect critical endpoint data, validate recovery points before an incident and support business continuity planning. They can also give business leaders greater confidence that recovery readiness is actively managed — not simply assumed.
A completed backup is not proof of recovery. A protected, validated, recoverable recovery point is.
A commitment that builds trust
Technology creates the foundation for recovery. Accountability strengthens trust.
The Anti-Ransomware Recovery Warranty shows that Acronis is willing to stand behind the recoverability of qualifying recovery points. For eligible customers, the program may also provide up to U.S. $1 million in reimbursement for qualifying recovery costs, subject to the applicable terms.
The financial commitment is important, but the greater value is the recovery confidence behind it.
Move from backup confidence to recovery confidence
Acronis Cloud Storage gives customers a secure and scalable place for recovery-critical data. The Anti-Ransomware Recovery Warranty adds a clear commitment to the outcome.
Together, they help businesses and MSPs protect what matters, prepare for disruption and recover with greater confidence.
The Acronis Anti-Ransomware Recovery Warranty is subject to the final Warranty Policy, applicable customer agreement, eligibility requirement, and applicable law. It is not a cyber insurance policy and does not guarantee prevention of data-threatening events.
