August 22, 2019 By BlueAlly
Expanding beyond technology, Acronis democratizes enterprise-grade cybersecurity with a single-vendor framework of services that test and strengthen staff and process readiness
Schaffhausen, SWITZERLAND – 22 August 2019 – Acronis, a global leader in cyber protection, today announced the launch of Acronis Cyber Services, making it easier for organizations of all sizes to access the kind of cybersecurity risks assessment, security awareness, and incident response services that until now have been too complex and costly for smaller organizations to consider.
With Acronis Cyber Services, organizations can harden their cyber protection posture with a combination of security risk assessments, vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, incident response services, and awareness training that’s customized based on an individual’s role.
“Cyberthreats continue to evolve, which means all companies need to be proactive in their cybersecurity planning and training. Unfortunately, historically the assessments, best practices and preparedness training have been too costly and complex for anyone other than large enterprises to implement. With the launch of Acronis Cyber Services, we’re making enterprise-grade cyber protection solutions more accessible so every organization can have the easy, efficient and secure cyber protection that’s needed today,” said Serguei “SB” Beloussov, Acronis’ founder and CEO.
By integrating multiple world-class cybersecurity services into a single-vendor framework, Acronis is abstracting the complexity for service providers and resellers to sell solutions that help their customers bolster their defenses, meet compliance requirements for data security, and ensure they are #CyberFit.
Three Powerful Services
Acronis Cyber Services is a set of streamlined services delivered by top cybersecurity experts. Specifically, the offering includes:
Acronis Security Assessment Services, including vulnerability scanning and penetration testing, enable organizations to identify risks to their critical data, understand how to mitigate complex security issues in real-world scenarios and be prepared to implement better security policies for their technologies, people and business processes.
Acronis Security Awareness Training ensures that an organization’s employees and IT personnel are well-educated on modern security practices and that executives are trained to detect the latest phishing attacks, especially those customized to target them. Organizations operating with compliance and regulations in mind, such as GDPR, can also benefit from the compliance-focused training modules provided by Acronis
Acronis Incident Response Service puts a plan in place with pre-negotiated terms and conditions for an enterprise-grade incident response when an organization has been breached. These services enhance an organization’s ability to recover quickly, meet regulatory requirements, collect evidence for future legal requests and manage any reputational damage if needed.
This set of services reinforces Acronis’ ability to deliver complete cyber protection by addressing the Five Vectors of Cyber Protection: ensuring the safety, accessibility, privacy, authenticity, and security of data (SAPAS).
Guided by this comprehensive approach, Acronis helps businesses overcome the wide variety of challenges that face modern IT teams – including increasing complexity, security, and costs – by delivering easy, efficient and secure solutions.
Acronis Cyber Services enables service providers to enhance their portfolio with a range of world-class services through a single contract with a trusted vendor like Acronis, rather than contracting with multiple point solutions.
The new offering can also streamline an MSP’s operations. By helping business customers train their employees to prevent breaches, for example, an MSP also reduces the number of tickets they must support – improving efficiency and profitability.
