Acronis Cyber Protect – comprehensive data protection and cyberthreat security. Why implement it with Direct IT?
In the digital world where every company bases its operations on data, information security becomes one of the most important elements of business strategy. Data loss – whether resulting from ransomware attacks, employee errors, hardware failures, or natural disasters – can paralyze business operations for many days. Therefore, more and more organizations are choosing Acronis Cyber Protect solutions that combine backup, antivirus protection, and modern cybersecurity mechanisms in one tool.
In this article, we explain what Acronis Cyber Protect is, how it works, what features it offers, and why implementing it with Direct IT’s assistance is the best investment in the stability and business continuity of your company.
What is Acronis Cyber Protect?
Acronis Cyber Protect is a multifunctional platform that combines backup creation, digital security, and data recovery mechanisms. This way, the company receives not only backup but also complete protection against threats such as ransomware, malware, unauthorized access, or sudden system failures.
The solution allows you to create backups of:
- files and folders,
- operating systems,
- virtual machines,
- servers and workstations,
- applications (e.g., Microsoft 365, database servers).
Backups can be stored locally or in the Acronis cloud, and all data is protected with enterprise-class encryption. This is a tool that ensures business continuity even in the most demanding situations.
How Does Acronis Cyber Protect Work?
The platform operates through a central management panel that allows administrators to easily create backup schedules, monitor devices, and respond to potential threats. The entire system is based on three pillars.
1. Backup and complete data recovery
Acronis enables various types of backups – from full, through incremental, to differential. This makes backup fast, optimized, and does not burden the IT infrastructure.
2. Protection against cyberattacks
The system analyzes file and application behavior in real-time, allowing it to detect anomalies and block suspicious processes. This is an effective shield against ransomware.
3. Disaster Recovery
In case of failure, the company can instantly restore the entire IT environment – even launch a virtual machine in the cloud and resume work without physical hardware.
Acronis Cyber Protect Implementation Process with Direct IT
Solution implementation is relatively simple, but only with professional execution can you fully utilize its capabilities. At Direct IT, we provide a comprehensive process – from needs analysis to configuration and constant backup supervision.
1. Environment installation
We select the appropriate system version and install it on servers, workstations, or virtual devices. Everything can also be launched remotely.
2. Data storage strategy selection
Depending on company needs, three models are available:
- local backup – on servers within the company structure,
- cloud backup – in the secure Acronis cloud (GDPR compliant),
- hybrid model – combination of both solutions, used by most organizations.
3. Backup plan design
We create individual schedules considering:
- frequency of data changes,
- operational requirements,
- server capacity,
- importance of individual systems to the business.
Each backup is tailored to the specific company’s work rhythm.
4. Security, encryption, and access control
We implement mechanisms such as:
- AES-256 encryption,
- MFA (multi-factor authentication),
- backup access restriction to selected administrators,
- additional IT security policies.
Direct IT is also responsible for backup monitoring, automatic error alerts, and quick response in case of incidents.
