Over the past year, Acronis has significantly expanded its Cyber Protect Cloud platform with new features, innovations, and enhanced cybersecurity services.
Here is a peek at Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud's most important improvements in 2024.
Detection and Response Enhancements
Acronis XDR
In today's rapidly evolving IT landscape, companies constantly add more endpoints, email systems, identities, Microsoft 365 tools, and network devices to their infrastructures. This growth makes it more difficult for organisations to oversee and protect their systems. Fortunately, Acronis has introduced Extended Detection and Response (XDR) to help tackle these challenges.
This integrated solution expands protection across the most vulnerable attack points, including Entra ID and Microsoft 365 apps. But the major thing is that, unlike similar products on the market, Acronis XDR is accessible to small business clients providing them with strong protection against sophisticated threats.
Acronis MDR
Acronis Managed Detection and Response (MDR) is a budget-friendly and resource-efficient service for managed service providers and it’s a perfect option for growing companies.
Acronis MDR is helpful for service teams with limited staff and allows them to cover security alerts 24/7 all year round by outsourcing the most time- and resource-consuming security tasks. Acronis MDR team can handle various tasks like monitoring, investigating suspicious activities, responding to incidents and recovering data via backup.
Early Access Program to Acronis Copilot
Acronis Copilot in Acronis XDR offers an AI-assisted feature that generates detailed and clear incident summaries upon request. This feature can also guide response actions, helping technicians save time while resolving threats. The chat feature uses OpenAI’s ChatGPT 4.0 large language model (LLM) to assist IT professionals in incident investigation, analysis, response, and remediation, regardless of their experience and skill levels.
Latest in Acronis Monitoring and Management
Device Sense™
Device Sense™ identifies and protects every device within clients’ networks. It uses a dual scanning system for continuous, passive, active, and on-demand scanning. Device Sense™ gives visibility and control, ensuring compliance and insurance requirements are met.
DeployPilot™
To tackle bulky and time-consuming tasks like adding new users and multiple client deployments, Acronis Management now includes a robust feature, DeployPilot™, which centralises and automates software deployment across all client environments. This tool enables MSPs and IT administrators to manage software installations remotely and efficiently, at any scale.
Acronis Security Awareness Training
Acronis created Security Awareness Training (SAT) to meet the growing demand for customised cybersecurity training. Acronis SAT streamlines training and phishing simulation management for managed service providers via an easy-to-use console that enables them to run training programs for their clients efficiently. The ultimate goal is to mitigate cybersecurity risks and avoid interruptions.
Early Access Program to Email Archiving
The early access to Acronis Email Archiving for Microsoft 365 provides powerful search features and fast, self-service access, helping clients comply with regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and NIS 2.
With Acronis Email Archiving for Microsoft 365, every email data is continuously stored and preserved, ensuring no critical information is missed. This is essential for maintaining a complete, secure, and searchable record for compliance purposes. With convenient e-discovery tools, you can quickly locate specific emails without wasting valuable time and effort.
