The Emergence of Cyber Protection
Acronis is the leader in cyber protection – a rapidly emerging category in the IT community that integrates data protection and cybersecurity to deliver the best of both worlds through one solution. As this category has gained traction the industry has definitely started to take notice. IDC recommended cyber protection as a key to modern IT transformation strategies.
