The update introduces enhanced features that simplify protection and strengthen compliance requirements for all organizations managing critical systems
PRAGUE, November 12, 2025 – Acronis, a global leader in cyber protection solutions, announced a new version of Acronis Cyber Protect, providing natively integrated cyber resilience for local private clouds and isolated IT and operational technology (OT) environments. Designed for organizations for which public cloud deployment is not suitable, the solution combines robust backup, rapid recovery, cybersecurity, and endpoint management in a single platform. The update introduces enhanced features that simplify protection and strengthen compliance requirements for all organizations managing critical systems.
Built on Acronis' proven cyber protection expertise, Acronis Cyber Protect keeps data secure within the customer's perimeter, ensuring full data sovereignty and regulatory compliance. The new version supports legacy systems as well as modern hypervisors, ensuring complete coverage for hybrid infrastructures. Customers benefit from a high level of compatibility, one-click self-service recovery, and enhanced workload portability for virtual and hyperconverged environments.
What's new in Acronis Cyber Protect:
- Agentless backup for Nutanix AHV and Proxmox VE: Protects virtual machines without the need to install agents on every instance, reducing overhead and increasing efficiency.
- Device Sense detection: Enables automatic detection, classification, and inventory of devices across the entire network, providing real-time visibility into all connected endpoints.
- Enhanced inventory management: Streamlines asset tracking and lifecycle management with more accurate information and centralized control.
- Integrated security: Integrated anti-malware and anti-ransomware protection helps ensure data integrity and operational continuity, even against emerging threats.
- Fast recovery: Restores system operations quickly and reliably through optimized recovery workflows that minimize downtime and data loss.
“Despite the widespread adoption of cloud applications, there is critical infrastructure that requires local deployment and protection,” said Gaidar Magdanurov, President of Acronis. “Systems providing access to utilities, technology, healthcare, and transportation are vulnerable targets for cyberattacks because they rely on outdated software and hardware. In 2025, more than 50% of organizations operating OT systems reported at least one cybersecurity incident. Acronis Cyber Protect brings the performance and innovation of our popular cloud platform to the cyber protection of on-premises environments, where it runs on a dedicated server within the customer's internal networks to meet stringent security and data residency requirements.”
With Acronis Cyber Protect, organizations gain proactive, active, and reactive defense layers specifically designed for environments where cloud connectivity is limited or prohibited. This locally focused platform extends the reach of Acronis' global cyber protection technology to enterprises, industrial organizations, and multi-site entities that require secure deployment options without an internet connection.
