Acronis Transforms Cybersecurity With Integrated Technologies

Acronis, a global frontrunner in cyber protection, has unveiled a groundbreaking development by seamlessly integrating its Advanced Security and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions. This pioneering move not only solidifies Acronis’ leadership in cyber protection but also aligns perfectly with the understanding that conventional security falls short in countering the rise of AI-driven cyber threats. In response to this growing imperative, Acronis ensures its users access mission-critical EDR capabilities without additional charges. Fueled by the surge in AI-driven cyber threats, this amalgamation of cybersecurity features will empower partners to fortify their defense strategies against evolving threats efficiently and economically.

In this dynamically evolving cybersecurity landscape, EDR is no longer merely a preference but a necessity to bolster MSPs against the relentless onslaught of sophisticated cyber threats. MSPs have historically grappled with the challenges of managing a diverse set of security tools, resulting in heightened administrative burdens, increased potential for errors, and an overall more vulnerable environment. Acronis addresses these pivotal issues by seamlessly integrating endpoint detection and response (EDR) with endpoint management, and backup and recovery solutions.

Ezequiel Steiner, CEO at Acronis, emphasized, “MSPs and their customers are constantly under attack, facing increasingly sophisticated threats. Traditional antimalware offerings have become obsolete. MSPs need EDR.” He added that Acronis, recognizing the challenges of widespread EDR adoption, particularly in terms of cost and complexity for MSPs, has incorporated it at no additional cost, disrupting the security market and enabling deployment of Acronis security to all endpoints. Notably, Acronis EDR stands out with its MSP-centric design, enhancing technician efficiency through automation and significantly reducing false positives.

Key features and benefits of Acronis’ integrated Advanced Security + EDR solution for MSPs include:

• Comprehensive Security Solution: MSPs can effortlessly implement a holistic security framework with rapid recovery capabilities in the event of a successful attack, streamlining security measures for a unified front against modern threats.
• Compliance and Protection: The solution empowers MSPs to safeguard against modern threats and easily comply with cyber insurance requirements, strengthening their security posture.
• Greater Efficiency: By minimizing administrative overhead through a unified security platform, Acronis empowers MSPs to maximize efficiency, simplifying management tasks and reducing the risk of errors for enhanced operational effectiveness.

The evolution of AI tools has empowered threat actors to enhance attack sophistication, volume, and speed, posing a greater threat to MSPs and their clients. In response, Acronis adapts to these challenges, meeting the evolving needs of its partners and driving innovation in cyber protection. To address industry shifts, Acronis takes a forward-thinking approach, leading the future of the security space with a comprehensive all-in-one solution.

Recognizing the critical importance of securing all endpoints, Acronis recommends that MSPs deploy security to every endpoint, acknowledging that any endpoint can serve as an entry point for network penetration. Acronis’ integration of Advanced Security and EDR solutions reaffirms its commitment to leading the security sector by offering solutions that comprehensively address emerging challenges.
