Acronis introduces a simplified endpoint security system called Acronis Advanced Security + Endpoint Detection & Response.

Advanced Security + Endpoint Detection & Response is the latest solution from technology company Acronis to simplify endpoint security. Acronis is making its EDR solution generally available today. It is primarily aimed at Managed Service Providers (MSPs), who thus have an additional tool at their disposal to protect the environment of their end customers.

Edpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is hot because it offers an extra layer of security on top of classic endpoint protection. With EDR, organizations (or MSPs) get a clear view of all threats endpoints are facing. In addition, IT specialists can take appropriate action if an employee’s system is compromised.

At Acronis, the EDR solution fits into the so-called Acronis Cyber ​​​​​​Protect Cloud, which combines protection, backup and recovery in one. In this way, Acronis tries to stand out from other similar solutions on the market.

The advantages

According to Acronis, the EDR solution offers several advantages:

• The new EDR system is easy to install and use. It also conforms to key industry standards, such as the US National Institute of Standards and Technology’s NIST Cybersecurity Framework and Miter Att&ck, a global guideline for classifying and describing cyberattacks and intrusions.
• With the Optimized Incident Analysis, incidents and possible attacks are analyzed quickly and easily. The EDR immediately evaluates a possible attack, analyzes how and what and estimates the possible consequences. No time-consuming process is required.
• To ensure the best possible continuity of your activities in the event of a cybersecurity problem, these exist Integrated security with backup & recovery. This also ensures that there is as little loss of time as possible in the event of an attack. The integration with Backup immediately explains why Acronis places so much emphasis on the tool.
• In general, the MSPs can work with Complete Cyber ​​Protection. It is a single system for deploying, analyzing and deploying solutions.

Acronis EDR is available now.
