Backup is not the outcome. Recovery is. When critical data becomes unavailable, businesses need more than a completed backup job. They need confidence that their data is protected, available and ready for recovery. That is why Acronis is introducing the Anti-Ransomware Recovery Warranty for eligible customers using Acronis Cloud Storage. The capability adds a clear recovery commitment to the secure cloud storage foundation customers already rely on.

Singapore's labour market is changing, and the numbers show it. The Ministry of Manpower's (MOM) latest Q2 2026 labour report recorded 4,620 retrenchments in the second quarter of 2026, the highest since the end of 2020. Job vacancies slipped to 68,600, with the sharpest falls in professional roles in financial services and in information and communications. Laid-off residents are also taking longer to find their next role. Only 54.9% found work within six months, down from 60.7% the previous quarter.

Together, CloudCasa by Catalogic and Dell PowerStore provide a complete disaster recovery solution for Kubernetes environments — combining PowerStore’s native array-to-array replication with CloudCasa’s Kubernetes-aware orchestration. PowerStore handles the data path, synchronously or asynchronously, while CloudCasa discovers workloads, validates the DR plan, and rebuilds Deployments, StatefulSets, and KubeVirt VMs on the target cluster, reconnecting them to the recovered volumes.

In the latest 2.5.0 release, we’ve improved copy replication to execute faster and use less resources. We also optimized Microsoft 365 backups with Graph API support, and made restore experience across multiple workloads smoother. Read on to learn about all enhancements in the 2.5.0 release of GitProtect.

This year's National Cybersecurity Alliance Cybersecurity Awareness Month theme, “Don’t make it easy for them,” asks us to look beyond today’s cyber risks by building good habits into our everyday routines. Practicing those habits consistently can make life harder for cybercriminals. While technology continues to transform how we work and communicate, one thing remains unchanged: Strong cybersecurity starts with people.

Microsoft Active Directory is widely used for authentication, and many software solutions can integrate with it to rely on a single authentication system. VMware vSphere components, including vCenter Server and ESXi hosts, also support Active Directory integration, which simplifies account and access management. However, this convenience introduces specific security risks that administrators need to understand and mitigate.

Data replication is primarily used when service and data availability requirements are high. There are two types of replication – real-time replication or continuous replication and traditional replication, also called periodical or snapshot replication. Real-time replication has more advantages than traditional replication but consumes more resources. For this reason, it is better to follow data replication best practices to implement real-time VM replication for disaster recovery.

In modern CI/CD pipelines, source code moves fast, and repository state changes constantly. Manual backups are inherently fragmented, error-prone, and incapable of capturing platform metadata at scale. To prevent critical data loss and ensure rapid failover, engineering teams must automate their repository backups.

Cyber resilience depends on more than recovery. Organizations need to protect critical data, empower users to recognize threats, maintain visibility across IT environments and ensure recovery is available when it matters most. Acronis Cyber Protect v17 Q3 2026 expands integrated cyber protection with new capabilities that strengthen security awareness, improve backup operations and extend protection across more virtual environments.
