These integrated capabilities create new opportunities for MSPs to deliver enhanced cybersecurity. With Acronis Cyber Protect, MSPs can proactively avoid cyberattacks, minimize downtime, ensure fast and easy recoveries, and automate the configuration of client protection to counter the latest cyberthreats. The result is improved margins, better profitability, easier SLA compliance, greater performance, and decreased churn – all at a lower cost. Planned since last year, this is a truly unparalleled solution that’s been custom-made to help businesses that were caught off guard by the pandemic. A cyber protection life vest for MSPs struggling to cater for their customers changing needs. Suggested Reading: India vulnerable to ransomware attacks: DSCI-PwC report.
