Cyber security wasn’t a top-of-mind for most consumers. However, certain events over the past few years have made people more conscious about their overall cyber security. Acronis recognizes this and has come out with secure backup solution for you.

With a majority of people moving their workstations from their office to their home due to the global health crisis, there’s even more of an urgency to protect your files. Homes typically are less secure than offices and this is something cyber criminals are aware of.

The Acronis True Image 2021 wants to be the wall that protects your files from malicious attacks.

“As more people work or attend classes from home, the FBI documents a 400% increase in cyberattacks because hackers know home systems are not usually as well-defended as an office,” said Serguei “SB” Beloussov, founder and CEO of Acronis.

“Backup without cybersecurity is an incomplete option in that situation, as is cybersecurity without backup. Acronis True Image 2021 delivers the easy, efficient, and secure cyber protection needed today.”

Superior cyber protection

Acronis True Image has been the only personal backup solution with a built-in antiransomware that stops attacks in real-time, while automatically restoring any affected files. With the launch of Acronis True Image 2021, those capabilities are expanded with the addition of the company’s advanced antimalware technology, which is currently deployed in Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud.

This next-gen, full-stack antimalware has been shown by independent security labs such as Virus Bulletin and AV-Test to return a 100% detection rate with zero false-positives. As a result, home users gain advanced capabilities with Acronis True Image 2021, including:

• Real-time protection, driven by AI-enhanced behavioral heuristics, which stops all malware – including zero-day attacks by never-before-seen threats
• On-demand antivirus scans of the full system or quick scans of at-risk files, either of which can be scheduled in advance or run instantly
• Web filtering that automatically blocks Windows users from accessing malicious websites that harbor malware, disinformation, scams, and phishing attacks
• Videoconference protection prevent hackers and malware injection attacks from exploiting popular apps like Zoom, Cisco Webex, and Microsoft Teams
• Comprehensive detection, with both behavioral analysis and signature-based analysis engines

Acronis True Image 2021 gives individuals and small businesses access to the same protection technologies relied on by global companies and top teams in the world’s most high-pressure professional sports.
