In March 2024, Acronis reported our excellent results in independent evaluations conducted by leading security testing institute AV-Test for Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) with Advanced Security for the macOS operating system. Today, we are delighted to report that it was named the best of all tested products in 2023.
Throughout 2023, AV-Test examined and evaluated security products at regular intervals to analyze the Protection (protective function), Performance (speed), and Usability (user-friendliness) of products for different operating systems, including macOS, which is currently reported to have around 20% of global market share. All products that meet AV-TEST’s high criteria are awarded a certificate for evaluation of security against IT threats. At the end of 2023, all the values recorded and labels awarded were combined to determine the winners of the AV-TEST Awards.
Best macOS Security goes to Acronis
The number of threats facing macOS systems is continuing to increase with no sign of slowing down. According to AV-TEST, they have already registered nearly one million samples of specialized Mac malware.
In the series of tests conducted in 2023, Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) demonstrated maximum protection and reliability. The product was evaluated in all four tests in 2023 and received a perfect score in all four. In recognition of this consistently high performance, top protection and usability, AV-TEST honored Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) with the Best macOS Security Award for Corporate Users.
“Nowadays, the reliable protection of a company is the be-all and end-all. It may be that, in some cases, the entire existence of a business depends on perfect system protection. One endpoint solution for macOS systems ticks all the boxes when it comes to protecting both devices and the network with full reliability, and the lab at AV-TEST is therefore delighted to present the Best macOS Security Award for Corporate Users to Acronis Cyber Protect. This is the ultimate way to confirm the constant development of the product and the maximum security it provides,” declared Maik Morgenstern, CTO of AV-TEST.
