Accelerate security with Acronis TRU searches
A decisive contribution to the acceleration of safety initiatives comes fromAcronis Threat Research Unit (TRU), which published 17 original threat research during 2025. The team's activities delve deeper into malware, ransomware, and active attack vectors, helping to improve understanding of current threats within the security community. The most relevant research published in 2025 includes campaign analysis FileFix observed in real contexts that exploit steganography, the study of Ransomware SafePay as a rapidly growing threat to MSPs, the examination of the activities of the DragonForce Cartel and Scattered Spider, the use of malware disguised as applications based on Electron and tracking of the evolution of Chaos RAT from open source project to active threat.
Third-party awards confirm market leadership
Acronis' growth is confirmed by the awards received from industry analysts and peer review platforms. In the first quarter of 2025, Acronis was nominated Champion in Cybersecurity Leadership Matrix di Canalys, which highlighted the company's MSP-first approach and the overall simplicity of the business relationship. Frost & Sullivan recognized Acronis as Leader in the report Frost Radar Endpoint Security 2025, underlining the leadership in growth and innovation indices and the potential for future development.

Acronis is making security offerings for MSPs simpler and more robust with collaboration security features and Security Awareness Training programs, enabling MSPs to reduce the risk of human error and secure remote work environments. To further simplify deployment and management tasks, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud provides consolidated licensing packages for workplace protection, Microsoft 365 and digital resilience, with a portfolio that allows MSPs to adapt protection packages to concrete use scenarios and specific customer needs. This approach allows us to offer complete and economically sustainable security services, improving operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Safety proven by independent assessments
Numerous independent tests and certifications confirm the effectiveness of Acronis security:
– SE Labs AAA rating for EDR detections: Acronis
total equal to 98%.
– Test Advanced Threat Protection di AV-TEST: Acronis recognized as a “Leader” in advanced threat protection assessment.
– MITER ATT&CK Ratings: Acronis reports a low level of unnecessary alerts, highly reliable detections and a significant positive impact on MSP operations.
Expanding MSSP integrations and ecosystem
By expanding the ecosystem, Acronis increases the coverage offered, with some new features:
– Fortinet FortiGate Integrations: The partnership between Acronis and Fortinet offers comprehensive, natively integrated and accessible protection to organizations of all sizes, specifically designed for MSPs.

“The current driving force behind security is not just the delivery of new product features, but the ability to provide effective protection at scale,” he said Gerald Beuchelt, CISO at Acronis. "The security journey begins with understanding threats as they emerge and rapidly translating this information into concrete protection. By combining in-depth threat research, rapidly evolving product innovation, and strong ecosystem partnerships, we support MSPs and organizations in maintaining an advantage over adversaries, avoiding a purely reactive approach."
Looking ahead, Acronis will continue to evolve its proprietary security platform by expanding the use of generative AI and automation, with the goal of making protection more autonomous and easier to manage at scale. An expansion of protection is also planned, which will also include new emerging attack vectors, including GenAI-based threats, along with the release of new solutions developed based on TRU Research activities and partner recommendations. Through this ongoing commitment to threat research, platform innovation and partner enablement, Acronis helps set the standard for modern cyber protection.
