Acronis, the global leader in Cyber Protection, is anticipating exciting developments in cybersecurity in the coming year as a result of the #CyberFit Summit 2022. Acronis unveiled the upcoming releases of Acronis Advanced Automation and Acronis Advanced Security + EDR in front of over 1,000 attendees, 50 journalists, and 100 speakers, and introduced the newest member of the c-suite, Chief Sales Officer Katya Ivanova.
MSPs and IT professionals were left with deeper insights into the threat landscape, new business-building tips, and a path to accelerate growth while securing customer loyalty, thanks to superstar keynotes, expert panels, and hands-on workshops.
With his keynote address, Acronis CEO Patrick Pulvermueller kicked off the three-day event in Miami Beach. He began with staggering statistics that demonstrated the enormity of data today. There are now 10 million physical servers on the planet, and data creation has increased 90-fold since 2010. Consolidation and simplification are the way forward to protect this massive amount of data. Pulvermueller referenced the #CyberFit Summit’s tagline, “cyber protect the future,” and emphasized Acronis’ unwavering commitment to partner success, innovation, and simplification.
“The continuous rise of cyber protection the defining moment of our industry”, said Patrick Pulvermueller, CEO at Acronis. “During our #CyberFit Summit, we were thrilled to share our vision for Acronis and how cyber protection will evolve in the year ahead. At Acronis, we’re continuing to set our partners and customers up for success.”
In multiple sessions at the Acronis #CyberFit Summit in Miami, cybersecurity analysts and experts provided an inside look at how cyberattacks attacks work, how MSPs are impacted and how Acronis Cyber Protection Solutions prevent them. Other notable keynotes from the event included former FBI Director, Judge Louis Freeh talking about his experience with the mafia and ransomware; basketball legend and serial entrepreneur, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, giving an inspirational speech on how he has parlayed the skills and tenacity acquired on the court into a winning formula for his successful business ventures; Acronis founder and Chief Research Officer Serg Bell’s discussion about expanding the future of MSPs; and the #CyberWomen keynote, where several influential women speculated on the bright future for women in the cyber field.
#CyberFit Summit sponsors Silvereye Technologies and Galactic Advisors were thrilled to be part of the event. “A decade ago, excellent cybersecurity and data protection was a luxury. Now that ransom payments are skyrocketing, companies are suffering huge hits, not only financially but also to their reputation. Cybersecurity is now a necessity,” said Jennifer Pierce at Galactic Advisors. “Events like #CyberFit Summit are an excellent opportunity to share knowledge and position our partners to make a significant positive impact in their communities around the world.”
Cameron May, Chief Strategist of Silvereye Technologies added, “The Acronis Platform is a cornerstone for cybersecurity. The Acronis Summit combines a wide range of technologies, industry leaders and strategists together for what Silvereye views as the most important event of the year.”
MSPs, CISOs, CIOs, and architects left the #CyberFit Summit with bursting camera reels (over 8,000 photos were taken over the three days), great new ideas, and excitement for Acronis developments in early 2023. Attendees may have also returned home with a desire to rest their feet: the average conference attendee walked 25,000 steps per day. That is #CyberFit.
