Acronis Cyber Protect

Backup and Recovery

Backup And Security,
One Agent

Acronis merges backup with endpoint protection deliberately. The agent that takes the image also watches for ransomware, which means an attack can be stopped and the damaged files restored by the same product, without two vendors pointing at each other.

ONE AGENT DETECT RESTORE NO HANDOFF BETWEEN VENDORS
The Sequence

From Attack To Restored, Without Leaving The Console

The integration argument is only worth anything if it shortens the recovery. Here is where it does.

Before

Two Vendors, One Incident

Security detects, backup restores, and the gap between them is filled by somebody manually working out which snapshot predates the attack.

Detection

Encryption Recognised

The agent identifies ransomware behaviour on the protected machine and halts the process before it completes its pass.

Minutes Later

Affected Files Restored

Because the same agent holds the backup, the specific files touched during the attack are returned automatically rather than through a full restore.

After

Clean Snapshot Confirmed

Backups are scanned so that a restore does not reintroduce the malware that was captured inside a later image.

What Is In The Package

Coverage Across The Awkward Edges

The breadth matters most for the workloads that usually fall between two products.

Full Image And File Recovery

Complete system images allow bare metal restore to different hardware, alongside granular file recovery for the far more common request of retrieving one deleted document.

Microsoft 365 And Cloud Data

Mail, files and collaboration data held in cloud platforms are backed up separately, which closes the gap organizations assume their subscription already covers.

Central Management

Protection policies, backup schedules and recovery are handled from one console across sites and devices, which is the practical reason providers standardise on it.

What Changes
1

One vendor accountable when a restore is needed after an attack. The integration is worth less than the marketing suggests when everything works, and considerably more than it sounds at two in the morning when the alternative is two support queues disagreeing about whose problem it is.

Honest Qualification

Where The Combination Pays

Consolidating Vendors

Organizations tired of running separate backup and endpoint products, and paying two support contracts to cover one incident, get a genuine simplification here.

Mixed And Remote Fleets

Laptops that rarely touch the office network are well served, because protection and backup travel with the device rather than depending on a scheduled window on the local network.

Think Twice If

You already run a strong endpoint product you have no intention of replacing. Buying the combined platform for backup alone means paying for security capability that will sit switched off beside the one you kept.

In Short

Ask Who Restores After An Attack

If backup and security come from different vendors, establish now which one owns the recovery, because the incident is a poor time to find out.
