Acronis with its new product launch and cyber protection solutions

At the Gisec event, Acronis will showcase new cyber protection solutions that aim to solve the safety, privacy, accessibility, authenticity, and security challenges of today’s digital world. Alongside the current offerings, which include AI-enhanced anti-malware, signature-based AV, automated vulnerability scanning, advanced email security, DLP, backup, and disaster recovery, Acronis will introduce EDR solution in 2023. The primary objective for participating in this year’s event is to raise awareness about the importance of data protection and disaster recovery planning. The distributor partners who join Gisec 2023 will play an important role in promoting and presenting Acronis latest cyber protection solutions. They are planning to have around three distributor partners at the event who will collaborate the team to raise awareness and educate visitors about the benefits of these solutions. The distributor partners will engage with visitors, discuss their specific needs, and provide customised solutions that meet their requirements.

At Gisec 2023, both global and regional executives will have the opportunity to witness the latest cyber protection solutions that help organisations navigate and prevent cyber attacks. Their range of capabilities can significantly contribute to the growth and competitiveness of data-driven companies building their digital ecosystem. Along with showcasing the solutions, they aim to educate decision-makers about the importance of data protection and disaster recovery.

Acronis is dedicated to the success of its partners and is introducing new product launches, including EDR capabilities, Data Loss Prevention solutions, and ransomware protection, among other advancements, to expand its already substantial range of product offerings and security solutions. Additionally, they are expanding resources on the partner portal, providing more training, content, marketing, and sales materials to help their partners grow their businesses and better serve their customers.

Ahead of Gisec 2023, Cisco revealed the company’s security insights as observed in the latest Cisco Talos annual report, titled ‘Cisco Talos: Year in Review 2022’ (Report). The Report delves into several major trends across the threat landscape in 2022, as well as new behaviors from commodity loaders that will continue to be present in 2023 and beyond. The report is compiled by Cisco Talos Intelligence Group, one of the largest commercial threat intelligence teams in the world, comprised of world-class cyber security researchers. After a short break, organised cybercrime came back stronger than before in the second half of the year with top threats in 2022 including:

Ransomware: In 2022, ransomware continued to be a significant threat to organisations across the globe with ransomware attacks making up nearly 20 percent of threats in 2022. The threats have been observed to be more sophisticated, and the attacks can cause severe disruptions to business operations, result in data loss, and damage a company’s reputation.

APT groups: Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups have expanded their operations over the past year, with state-sponsored increasingly using supply chain attacks, zero-day vulnerabilities, and social engineering tactics to gain access to target systems and networks.

Log4j: The vulnerability in the Apache software’s Log4j shared library continued to be highly targeted by threat actors throughout 2022. Attempts to exploit this vulnerability have remained consistently high, with attacks over the past year being attributed to a variety of actors, ranging from simple cybercriminals to professionally organised APT groups.

In 2023, it has become crucial to ensure that robust and multi-layered security strategies are in place to prevent, detect, and respond to ransomware attacks effectively. Sharing threat intelligence and collaborating with industry peers, government agencies, and cybersecurity vendors will also assist in improving collective defense against APT groups.
