[Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud)](https://www.acronis.com/en/products/cloud/cyber-protect/) enables you to deliver thorough cyber protection for your clients. The [EDR](https://www.acronis.com/en/products/cloud/cyber-protect/security-edr/) pack enables you to protect your clients from online threats via web filtering. The [Email Security](https://www.acronis.com/en/products/cloud/cyber-protect/email-security/) pack prevents all email-borne threats before they can reach clients’ mailboxes. The other anti-malware and protection layers of Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud), including the behavioral analysis enhanced with machine intelligence, ensure that online threats are prevented, even if they’re able to reach clients’ workloads. ### Do clients need backup and disaster recovery if they already have prevention solutions? The backup and recovery functionalities of [Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud)](https://www.acronis.com/en/products/cloud/cyber-protect/) guarantee that even if clients are breaches with advanced attack techniques, or if they experience downtime due to system failure, you would be able to quick recover their systems and data to a good, known state. The [Disaster Recovery pack enables you to create disaster recovery plans to ensure faster recoveries and less downtime for your clients. While](https://www.acronis.com/products/cloud/cyber-protect/disaster-recovery/) [Advanced Backup](https://www.acronis.com/en/products/cloud/cyber-protect/backup/) extends the data protection capabilities of Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) with continuous data protection and ability to backup more workloads, including Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle DBMS Real Application clusters, and SAP HANA. As some malware variants target backups, [EDR](https://www.acronis.com/en/products/cloud/cyber-protect/security-edr/) adds anti-malware protection for your clients’ backups, offloading their endpoints and applying more aggressive scans in Acronis Cloud, to prevent reinfection during recovery. ### How can we identify and close security gaps in across clients’ organizations?

Acronis empowers MSPs to improve their threat prevention services to provide proactive protection and resilient processes, while increasing end-users’ security-awareness. ## Cyber protection that encompasses people, process, and technologies In addition to improving your team’s skills and productivity, certifications enable your company to advance to higher levels within the Acronis Partner Program, which unlocks exclusive benefits. ### Prevent attacks that target people People are the top targets of cyber criminals. No matter which cyber protection services you provide, human error is still the cause of 88% of breaches, according to Stanford University. Address your weakest link and enhance end-user preparedness with 700+ security-awareness training modules. ### Improve your processes to prevent zero-day threats Improve your team’s cyberattack prevention processes with integrated and automated hardware and software detection, vulnerability assessments and failsafe patching. ### Prevent tomorrow’s attacks with modern technology Modernizing your cybersecurity technology stack to be more proactive is critical. With just one agent, you can have a next-generation anti-malware service that enhances your cyber protection services to prevent loss or leakage of clients’ data, malware infections, and vulnerability exploitation. ## Employ a proactive approach to threat prevention.
