Power and energy organizations are a prime target of cyberattacks. They face cyberthreats that can disrupt generation, transmission and distribution. And as they introduce more connected digital technologies alongside legacy and connectivity-restricted OT systems, their cyberattack surface becomes more complex. That is why cyber resilience has become a critical operational requirement for the power and energy sector. The U.S.

Android is a very popular and prolific operating system on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Most of the time, there is no practical reason to install Android on a physical computer, but there may be some cases when you need to run Android on a virtual machine (VM), for example, when developing applications for Android and testing them. Fortunately, you can install Android on VMware Workstation, VMware Player, VMware ESXi, and VirtualBox.

For MSPs serving health care clients, HIPAA compliance is a line item with consequences. Get it wrong and the downside is a six- or seven-figure Office for Civil Rights (OCR) settlement, a corrective action plan and a client base that loses confidence overnight. Get it right and health care becomes one of the highest-margin verticals in the channel.

Backups are often the last line of defense when ransomware reaches business-critical systems. But modern ransomware attacks do not target production data alone. Attackers may also search for backup repositories, compromise backup administrator accounts, change retention policies or delete recovery points before encrypting the live environment. When clean backup copies are no longer available, recovery becomes slower, more expensive and less predictable.

Heath care organizations are under attack. That's not news. But how serious is the threat? Consider these numbers from the IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report 2025: Health care organizations need help, and managed service providers (MSPs) can drive revenue and grow their businesses by providing it. But working in health care isn't like working in other industries.

In the March / April 2026 AV-TEST Advanced Threat Protection evaluation, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud once again earned Advanced Approved Endpoint Protection certification with a perfect 35 out of 35 protection score. The result was achieved in testing against advanced ransomware and infostealer attacks on Windows 11, where Acronis successfully defended against all 10 attack scenarios evaluated by AV-TEST.

Healthcare cybersecurity is usually discussed in terms of patient data and regulations like HIPAA. But software teams in healthcare need to protect the development layer with the same rigor. After an incident, teams need a trusted record of the codebase and the project context around it. Without this safeguard, they’re guessing at what changed and what’s safe to restore.
