Do you know what it takes to launch a retail website that neatly organizes products and enables customers to add items to their carts with a single click? Do you know what powers the booking system your clients rely on? What is the hidden engine that manages your clients’ logistics, controls their supply chain, processes invoices and stores data for analytics and compliance? These are the systems MSPs are trusted to keep running every day. Critical servers.

Acronis is introducing Acronis Archival Storage, a new S3-compatible cloud storage tier built specifically for long-term data retention, compliance and cost optimization. This addition strengthens the Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud platform by giving MSPs a complete, integrated solution that spans the entire data lifecycle from active protection on PCs and disaster recovery to long-term, compliant data archiving.

Acronis is proud to celebrate its longstanding partnership with CloudFire, an innovative Italian cloud service provider that has been transforming how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) approach data protection and business continuity. Based in Reggio Emilia, CloudFire has established itself as a leader in cloud services that put simplicity and scalability at the forefront. In recognition of this commitment to excellence, CloudFire was named Service Provider of the Year 2025.

DevOps teams did not sign up to be security teams. But if you run repos, CI/CD, cloud roles, SaaS apps, integrations, or backups, you operate the systems attackers lean on. Most breaches are not flashy. They start with routine failures: a token left in a repo, MFA not enforced, an overprivileged API key that never expires, or backups that are deletable by the same admin identity. Attackers do not need to “break in” if they can log in.

Choosing the best cybersecurity software is easier said than done, especially with the countless options on the market that promise us a rich feature set, astonishing effectiveness, and low prices. However, things are not always as advertised by vendors, and the real problem is that we only realize this after purchasing the product.

Cloud backup has become one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your Mac's data, because it stores your files in secure data centers, from where you can restore your data whenever needed in just a few clicks. It literally protects you from losing all your cherished memories like photos, videos, and important documents due to a cyberattack, natural disaster, or hardware failure.

In today's fast-paced IT landscape, the demand for efficient and reliable software deployment is more pressing than ever. MSPs and IT professionals are tasked with the complex responsibility of ensuring that software is consistently installed, updated, and maintained across a variety of client environments. Manual handling of these tasks can lead to numerous challenges, including configuration errors, security vulnerabilities and compliance issues.

Summary Operational technology (OT) systems underpin industrial safety and production, yet many run on legacy platforms that lack modern backup and cyber-resilience. Without isolated, full-system recovery, ransomware or system failure can halt operations and create serious safety risks — a gap addressed by modern OT backup approaches such as Acronis Cyber Protect.

Workspace security has evolved into one of the most critical challenges facing managed service providers and modern IT teams. As organizations continue to embrace remote and hybrid work models, traditional perimeter-based security approaches no longer provide adequate protection. Users now access corporate data from multiple locations, devices and cloud platforms, dramatically expanding the attack surface. For MSPs, this shift represents both a risk and an opportunity.

Identity theft is no longer just about lost wallets or stolen credit cards—it’s a growing digital threat that can start with something as simple as opening an email, clicking a link, or sharing information online. Criminals can use your personal data to open accounts, make purchases, or commit fraud in your name, and may also use your information to commit crimes beyond financial fraud, often leaving victims unaware until serious financial or legal damage occurs.
