A complete guide](https://staticfiles.acronis.com/images/blog-cover/e44479aa9902652a121944102811a7bd.png) The new rhythm for Acronis Cyber Cloud releases Acronis has moved away from big, version-based launches of the Acronis Cyber Cloud platform, and switched to a new cadence of monthly updates to the MSP services platform. Since the 9.0 release, when Acronis Cyber Platform was introduced, there have already been two product updates —July’s release is the third. These rapid improvements brought a number of highly demanded cyber protection features to help you successfully adjust your clients to working remotely without sacrificing their protection. Going forward, we’ll have smaller but more frequent releases. This approach will simplify and speed up the adoption of new capabilities — each release will have fewer changes, making it easier to learn and implement. The shortened planning and development cycle will enable us to quickly address changes in the current work environment, so we can deliver the most demanded features and innovations in Acronis products every month.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/new-rhythm-acronis-cyber-cloud-releases/)

The two words we strive to uphold, manage, and withstand through any crisis. But surprisingly, not every business has a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) or even a Business Continuity Management (BCM) system in place. Risk has become obsolete to them – like a mosquito, they just deal with them as and when they appear rather than putting measures in place to evade being bitten before they even have time to hatch!](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/business-continuity-management-guide/)

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.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/full-disk-encryption/)
