This is what is commonly referred to as multi-tier and multi-tenant architecture. It allows service providers to take on multiple customers (multi-tenancy) and allow these customers to resell the service to the second buyer (multi-tiering).](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/multi-tier-and-multi-tenant-capabilities-acronis-cloud-based-solutions-extend-customer-reach/)

Whether it was news of Yahoo’s two record-breaking hacks, state-sponsored hacking, or Dropbox and social networks being breached, hardly a week went by without news of a major security breach. Ransomware is clearly a profitable line of work. Not surprisingly, its reach is growing, and 2017 is now being coined the year of the hacker.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/guest-blog-architecting-layered-security-approach-year-hacker/)

During this time, Acronis launched Acronis True Image 2018, the #1 personal backup software, and the FIA also had safety on its mind, announcing that it was to introduce the radical ‘Halo’ driver protection device for the 2018 season onwards.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/safety-first-business-and-f1-keeping-safe-and-well-protected-number-one-priority/)

One year on, the partnership is growing stronger. Scuderia Toro Rosso has moved from the role of being a product supporter to using Acronis’ solutions itself, both trackside and in the factory.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/acronis-scuderia-toro-rosso-partnership-one-year/)

The analyzed Cerber sample was only detected as a suspicious malicious object by nine out of 64 antiviruses on the first submission to Virustotal. The low detection rate can be explained by the fact that the cryptolocker is using a polymorphic encryptor and API call obfuscation to protect its copies from being detected by antiviruses.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/cerber-ransomware-not-vacation-summer/)

Scuderia Toro Rosso is no exception. With a small army of trackside engineers and hundreds of devices following the racing calendar around the globe, the data flow never stops. Some data, like telemetry, pumps through the standard channels for a live feed at the factory. Other information, race-specific calculations and sensitive data, may fall outside of the always-on telemetry stream and require extra attention. While there’s always been sufficient security in place, secure data exchange required manual setup, which prompted Scuderia Toro Rosso to deploy Acronis Access Advanced to streamline the process.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/scuderia-toro-rosso-deploys-acronis-access-advanced-secure-data-sharing/)

Many traditional anti-malware solutions are not ready for the next generation of ransomware attacks. Acronis, however, has been very successful.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/undetected-powershell-ransomware-easily-blocked-acronis-active-protection/)

It’s no longer a secret that it was an Israeli-American cyberweapon. Since that time there were a lot of cases where critical infrastructure was attacked without any political motivation. One recent case is Industroyer — a mix of cyber weapon and ransomware-like products. We were contacted by our big OEM partners running process control systems who asked about this threat, wondering if our newest anti-ransomware technology, namely Acronis Active Protection™ could help. And guess what? Acronis Active Protection does help!](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/acronis-protects-critical-infrastructure-zero-day-malware-attacks/)

The new Petya-like ransomware just served a big blow to hundreds of banks, corporations, government organizations, post offices and shopping outlets around the world, spreading like fire, taking advantage of the EternalBlue exploit used by WannaCry ransomware only a few weeks before.
