Acronis has released the newly-rebranded Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office (formerly Acronis True Image). This new name for the company’s main personal solution symbolizes its progression from data and system backup software to a solution that offers comprehensive cyber security — next-generation anti-malware, best-in-breed backup, and easy management, all in one integrated tool.
In today’s world, the requirement for both comprehensive data protection and cybersecurity has become paramount. Businesses rely on the availability and integrity of their data to remain constant, while individuals all over the world transmit and receive vast amounts of sensitive data over the internet. As a result, cybercriminals have increased their attacks’ volume and sophistication, and because of advancements in threat automation, no one is now “too small to target.”
Acronis has been expanding its solutions to address the newest problems since 2017, recognising the growing challenges of data security. When ransomware attacks started directly targeting file backups, the company was the first to include anti-ransomware protection in a personal backup solution. The system grew from a backup to a full-fledged personal cyber-security solution that protects backups and gadgets. Acronis continued to focus on cybersecurity in 2021, adding threat-agnostic anti-malware, crypto jacking protection, and web filtering to its portfolio.
The success of Acronis’ efforts has been recognised, garnering Editor’s Choice honours from both PCWorld and PCMag. It was dubbed “an all-encompassing tragedy-prevention solution” by PCWorld. The integration of data backup and enhanced cybersecurity effectively detected and blocked 100 percent of cyberattacks when tested by independent security research lab AV-TEST.
Acronis Cyber Secure Home Office (previously Acronis True Image) has a number of features that help you protect your data from modern cyberthreats. The unique integration of cybersecurity and backup into a single solution simplifies and lowers the cost of protection and provides sophisticated features that standalone systems cannot, such as automatic data restoration after a ransomware attack.
Its sophisticated anti-malware has been proved to detect and stop the latest cyberthreats in real time, including zero-day attacks. Protection is expanded across popular software, such as video conferencing programmes like Zoom and Microsoft Teams, to prevent attackers from gaining access to data while it is in transit.
“The past two years have changed the industry landscape for good, no user is too small to be targeted anymore,” said Candid Wuest, Acronis VP of Cyber Protection Research.
Also explained, “The unique quality of our corporate solutions is the integrated cyber protection – combining cybersecurity and backup is the only way to keep your critical data truly protected. Now we offer Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office – to protect every individual and home office, and keep the world going despite the challenges of the remote work and distributed IT infrastructure.”
