Acronis harnesses the power of cloud-delivered detection through its network of data centers around the globe. When the Acronis Cyber Protection agent on an endpoint device detects something suspicious, metadata is sent to the cloud for additional analysis and research, including sandboxing, AI-enabled processing, and so on. More sophisticated threats can be analyzed by a human expert as well. A detection record is then created, which becomes instantly available to all other endpoints that are connected to the Acronis Cloud.
Signature-based detection gives you additional reassurance against all known threats, since you still occasionally encounter them. To make the detection process faster, most of cloud-, behavioral-, and AI-based detections eventually become signatures as well.
