This latest iteration establishes a new benchmark for swift and seamless recovery following cyberattacks or data loss, designed specifically for multi-site organisations.

Increasingly, integrated cybersecurity and data protection solutions are needed for distributed organisations.

Acronis Cyber Protect 16 features a new centralised dashboard to provide better, more simplified management through a single pane of glass, thereby enabling complete visibility of the entire environment.

Acronis Cyber Protect 16's noteworthy features include cyber threat protection – which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to proactively shield data, applications, and systems from advanced cyberattacks; rapid recovery – removing reliance on central IT support allows users to initiate one-click recovery; and reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) due to broad, multi-generational OS support. A consolidated view of backup and recovery operations and extensive OS support simplify management. Class-leading data sovereignty is achieved via the utilisation of Acronis' extensive network of global data centres.
