A disaster recovery plan is only useful if it works when you need it most. But many organizations avoid testing because they worry about downtime, data loss, or interrupting employees and customers. That is where disaster recovery testing comes in. With the right approach, you can validate your recovery strategy, check whether your backups are usable, confirm your recovery time objectives, and identify gaps without taking critical systems offline. The goal is not to create risk for the business.

Author: Alexander Ivanyuk, Senior Director, Technology Generative AI is no longer a side experiment inside businesses. It is moving into normal work: writing, summarizing, coding, research, customer support, internal search and repeatable workflows. OpenAI says it now serves more than one million business customers, more than seven million ChatGPT workplace seats, and roughly 8x growth in weekly enterprise messages since November 2024.

The days when compliance was only a documentation exercise are long gone. Now, it’s a critical priority for a wide variety of organizations. But compliance is more of a result than a goal. The goal is achieving resilience. Cybersecurity and data protection regulations are rapidly evolving far beyond traditional compliance checklists. Global frameworks and regulations such as NIS 2, DORA, GDPR, HIPAA, SOX and NIST 2.0 are placing greater emphasis on operational resilience.

Managed service providers (MSPs) rely on Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud to protect customers, manage operations efficiently and automate routine work. However, billing, one of the most critical operational processes, often remains manual, fragmented and error prone. This is why Acronis has now introduced a free, automated billing module which is available to all Acronis partners natively within the platform.

MSPs want to grow. Yet the cost of growth keeps eating the margin that extra growth was supposed to deliver. Traditionally, more customers means more endpoints, more tools, more alerts, more billing entities, more compliance frameworks. Headcount scales with the work, but margins don't seem to keep up. That problem has a new shape now. AI is changing how every IT environment is built, run and protected and the speed at which they are done.

As DevOps environments become primary attack surfaces, protecting your intellectual property (IP) requires a data-driven understanding of the modern threat landscape.
