Sporting Clube de Portugal, where legends such as Luís Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo once played, is one of Portugal's leading soccer clubs. Faced with growing concerns about data security, the club turned to Acronis.
THE SOLUTION
Sporting CP
adopted its partner's solution based on the Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud
platform, which combines backup and recovery functionalities with advanced
cybersecurity, endpoint detection and response (EDR), and file synchronization
and sharing (sync and share).
This
unique, natively integrated solution allows the club to protect its operations,
keep information secure, and assess the risk of a data breach. It also enables
early threat detection and the secure recovery of corrupted data, equipment and
systems in the event of a cyberattack. Acronis supported the implementation of Cloud
Security with specialized technical support, partnering with its implementation
partner for this type of solution in the Portuguese market, MEO Empresas.
