Dallas Stars will use the latest Acronis cyber protection
products and services to manage and protect their mission-critical
data.
Schaffhausen, SWITZERLAND - 27 August, 2020 - Acronis, a global leader in cyber
protection, today announced a new technology partnership with the
Dallas Stars, a professional National Hockey League (NHL) team.
Under the multi-year agreement, Acronis will provide innovative
cyber
protection solutions designed to safeguard data and optimize
data workflows to help the team perform at their best.
When the COVID-19 lockdown placed the NHL season on hold, the
Dallas Stars IT infrastructure continued its day-to-day operations,
supporting its staff working remotely. Moving forward, Acronis'
easy, efficient, and secure cyber protection solutions will protect
over 190 TB of the team's valuable workloads that are hosted on
hundreds of their workstations and Microsoft 365 seats,
ensuring that their employees working remotely remain #CyberFit
during these challenging times.
Acronis' technology and solutions are designed around a
principle known as the Five Vectors of Cyber Protection, namely
Safety, Accessibility, Privacy, Authenticity, and Security (SAPAS).
This ensures that data, applications, and systems are secure and
easily accessible for smooth daily operations.
Traditional backup usually involves storing data in physical
drives and are stored off-network. However, this makes the backup
process long and tedious, making it infeasible to perform such a
complicated procedure on a frequent basis. Acronis continues to
push the limits of technology to ensure that data backups are
performed automatically, and provide minimal disruptions to
day-to-day operations. Acronis
Cyber Protect, an AI-powered integration of data protection and
cyber security, is also utilized to keep a 24/7 lookout for cyber
threats.
"We are thrilled to have Acronis join the Dallas Stars as our
provider of cyber protection solutions." said Matt Keller, Director
IT, Dallas Stars. "Now, more than ever, it is important that our
organization's data be fully protected from modern cyber threats.
We know that Acronis cyber protection will keep our data safe and
improve our team's performance."
Acronis Founder and CEO, Serg Bell, said: "Acronis continues to
set the standard in cyber protection. Our technology is perfectly
suited for helping the world's leading sports teams protect their
data, applications and systems in any environment, during any time.
We are proud to become an official partner of the Dallas Stars and
look forward to a successful partnership with the team."
