Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud earns maximum score in AV-TEST Advanced Threat Protection test

Author: Alexander Ivanyuk Advanced attacks often use trusted Windows components and legitimate-looking files to conceal malicious activity. A manipulated DLL can run through a signed executable, while a scheduled task can launch PowerShell to load harmful code. These techniques make independent testing valuable because a security product must recognize the attack chain, not only a suspicious file.

Microsoft AI Security for SMBs: Purview Coverage Explained

You already pay for Microsoft 365. Before adding AI security, check which tools, accounts and activities your existing controls protect. Then decide what your IT team or managed service provider will manage. Microsoft AI security includes Purview controls for supported third-party AI discovery, sensitive-data protection and prompt-injection detection. Purview may meet your requirements when its licensed and configured controls cover your workflows.

Recover OT Systems After Ransomware with Acronis Cyber Protect

When ransomware disrupts a manufacturing site, every minute of downtime matters. See how Acronis Cyber Protect supports the controlled recovery of engineering servers, SCADA systems and manufacturing databases from a last known good state, helping OT and IT teams verify system integrity and resume production with confidence.

Demo: Reliable Backup and Recovery for Operational Technology (OT) Environments

This demo webinar examines OT trends and challenges, focusing on sources of downtime and strategies for maximizing uptime to maintain continuous manufacturing production. The session will also include how Acronis solutions solve OT challenges. You’ll explore how to:Ensure production systems stay online and improve recovery time objectives (RTOs).Simplify and automate backups.Minimize downtime of PCs that control critical OT systems such as SCADA servers, HMI, historians and DCS.Enable recovery of OT-controlling PCs by local, non-IT factory staff in minutes.

AI data security: protecting sensitive information across AI tools

An employee uploads a spreadsheet to find a sales trend. Another pastes a support conversation into a chatbot to draft a reply. Neither intends to expose business information. Even so, both may send sensitive material outside the systems where your business normally controls it. SMB IT decision-makers need to know what employees share and decide which interactions are acceptable, without building a specialist AI security team.

Managed identity threat detection and response (ITDR): what MSPs and security teams need

For MSP service owners and technicians, managed identity threat detection and response comes down to a practical service question: who investigates a compromised client account, and who can contain it after hours? Consistent handling across client environments depends on clear ownership from prevention through recovery. Start by checking the identity coverage already included in your managed detection and response (MDR) service or extended detection and response (XDR) deployment.

AI security solutions: what they are and how to choose one

Employees can start using an AI tool and share business information with it before IT has reviewed the service or the data involved. AI security solutions help businesses bring that exposure under control without treating every useful AI interaction as something to ban. This guide is written for SMB IT decision-makers evaluating protection for employees who use public or business generative AI tools, often with support from a managed service provider (MSP).

Managed EDR pricing and MDR costs: what to expect in 2026

A low endpoint rate means little if your technicians still cover nights, investigate alerts and coordinate recovery. For MSP owners, CFOs and IT directors, the useful comparison is not the headline rate but what the service covers and what work stays in-house. Every dollar figure below is a hypothetical U.S.-dollar assumption or calculation, not a published price or market benchmark.

HMI security: protecting human-machine interfaces from cyber threats

HMI security protects the operator-facing system against unauthorized access, credential misuse, malware, lateral movement and tampering while preserving safe visibility and operational continuity. In PC-based deployments, the OEM-managed application and the Windows or Linux workstation beneath it require separate controls. This guide is for OT and automation engineers, SCADA administrators and plant leaders responsible for HMI availability.
