Acronis, a global cybersecurity and data protection company, is driving innovation in the cybersecurity space. The company's efforts to strengthen its platform have led to remarkable growth. In the last year, Acronis prevented over 7.5 million attacks, showcasing the effectiveness of its proactive security solutions.
Since launching its first security product seven years ago, Acronis has expanded its cybersecurity offerings. New tools like AI-powered EDR, XDR, and MDR are now part of the platform. The company also introduced behavioral-based DLP and email security. These additions are helping businesses improve their security posture and protect against evolving cyber threats.

Acronis has earned praise from independent industry reports. According to Canalys, Acronis is now a Champion in cybersecurity, a significant achievement for the company. Frost & Sullivan also recognized Acronis for its consistent growth and innovation. Its integration of security, data protection, and recovery in a single platform is a major advantage for Managed Service Providers (MSPs).
'Acronis delivers a comprehensive platform that integrates security services, data protection, and operational management, strengthening its MSP-first approach,' said Matthew Ball, Chief Analyst at Canalys. 'With the expansion of its cybersecurity portfolio in 2024—including Acronis XDR, MDR, and Copilot—alongside its enhanced #CyberFit partner program, Acronis continues to empower MSPs with new revenue opportunities, streamlined operations, and advanced threat protection.'
Acronis' MSP Academy has also gained attention. The academy offers over 120 training courses and certifications. These resources empower MSPs to enhance their skills and increase company revenue.

Our natively integrated platform has a higher reliability for cybersecurity and boosts technician productivity by combining advanced threat intelligence, automation, and turn-key integrations. It also provides unique capabilities with scanning email and system backups for infections later to support forensics and recovery,' said Ziad Nasr, General Manager – Acronis Middle East. 'Effective cybersecurity goes beyond technology – it includes people and processes. By integrating security awareness, RMM and agent automation, and SaaS posture management through tools like Acronis Ultimate 365, we help businesses run secure deployments, strengthen defenses, and scale securely with confidence.'

ESET named a notable provider in latest European MDR Landscape report

Dubai, UAE: ESET, a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, is proud to announce its recognition as a 'Notable Provider' in Forrester's recently released The Managed Detection and Response Services in Europe Landscape, Q2 2025 report. The report provides an overview of 26 MDR providers and serves as a strategic guide for security and risk (S&R) professionals seeking to navigate the evolving European MDR landscape. As outlined in the report*, Forrester defines MDR services as: 'Services that augment extended detection and response (XDR) tools with telemetry from network, identity, cloud, APIs, applications, and other log sources to produce high-fidelity detections, conduct investigations, support remote incident response, enable security automation, initiate threat hunts to identify adversaries that circumvent security controls, and help improve their clients' overall security posture.' In our view, ESET´s inclusion in the report underscores its growing influence in the European cybersecurity market and reaffirms the company's commitment to delivering high-quality, proactive threat detection and response capabilities. 'We are proud to be recognized by Forrester as a Notable Provider in the European MDR landscape,' said Michal Jankech, Vice President, Enterprise & SMB/MSP, at ESET. 'For us, this acknowledgment is a testament to the relentless dedication of our global teams and our unwavering commitment to protecting organizations across Europe with cutting-edge, resilient cybersecurity solutions. As the threat landscape becomes increasingly complex and adversaries more sophisticated, we believe that MDR must evolve beyond traditional detection and response. At ESET, we are focused on delivering intelligent and cost-effective services that not only detect threats but also empower organizations to respond with speed, precision, and confidence.' The European MDR market is becoming increasingly competitive and mature, leading customers to demand better services at lower costs. To stay competitive, providers are innovating with their offerings and pricing. As a consequence, S&R professionals will have a wide range of provider options to consider. The Forrester report identifies three major dynamics shaping the MDR market in Europe, all of which align closely with ESET's MDR offerings: European firms consider XDR an essential capability: ESET's XDR-enabling solution delivers comprehensive, transparent threat visibility and response across endpoints, networks, and applications. Backed by over 30 years of cybersecurity innovation, it combines multilayered protection, intelligent automation, and expert-level customization. AI helps fill talent gaps in detection, but not response: Complemented by expert insights, ESET effectively integrates AI into its MDR offerings through ESET AI Advisor. This tool delivers real-time, personalized threat insights, simplifies complex data for all skill levels, and boosts efficiency by automating routine tasks—empowering faster, smarter threat response. Niche regional providers leverage localization and specialization to compete with dominant players: Leveraging its Central European roots, ESET delivers highly localized, regulation-aligned cybersecurity solutions across EMEA. *Forrester: The Managed Detection And Response Services In Europe Landscape, Q2 2025.

CyberKnight and ON2IT bring Zero Trust as a Service to META

Dubai, UAE — CyberKnight, the Middle East's value-added distributor dedicated to Zero Trust security, and ON2IT, the pioneer of Zero Trust as a Service (ZTaaS), today announced a strategic partnership. The collaboration is aimed at helping enterprise and government organizations across the Middle East, Turkey and Africa (META) move away from perimeter-based defenses. Their unified Zero Trust framework lowers cyber-risk, bolsters compliance and reduces operational cost. ' The Zero Trust approach delivers the resilience to mitigate cyber risk, enables modern business capabilities and a hybrid workforce, and provides the flexibility to enable appropriate access methods, while removing implicit access based on location. By 2026, 10 percent of large enterprises will have a mature and measurable Zero Trust program in place, up from less than 1 percent today.' — Gartner 'Zero Trust is no longer optional.' — Forrester, Chase Cunningham, Principal Analyst These analyst findings underline an urgent reality: in a fast-changing world defined by AI-driven threats and escalating geopolitical tensions, Zero Trust has become a business necessity, not a 'nice-to-have'. (Forrester, Information Week Prevention, Not Just Detection ON2IT's Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service runs on its AUXO™ security platform, which ingests log data from any IT, OT or cloud source -without the complexity of a traditional SIEM. Each event is analyzed both in real time and retrospectively against the AUXO Threat Intel Feed™. It's then routed through EventFlow™ and, when necessary, escalated to ON2IT's 24/7 SOC. The result is a prevention-first approach that blocks attacks before they escalate while cutting data-storage overhead and tool sprawl. Executive Commentary 'Current security stacks weren't built for today's cyber war,' said Wael Jaber, Chief Strategy Officer at CyberKnight. 'By adding ON2IT's Zero Trust as a Service to our portfolio, we give META customers direct access to globally proven Zero Trust Readiness, Fast Track and Coaching services, empowering them to adopt Zero Trust with confidence, clarity and ease.' 'CyberKnight and ON2IT are proud to join forces to offer globally leading Zero Trust consulting services across the Middle East and Africa,' said Marcel van Eemeren, CEO & Co-founder of ON2IT. 'With a decade of Zero Trust leadership and a SOC-driven, prevention-first approach, ON2IT delivers modular, scalable services tailored to each organization's unique needs. Through this partnership, META organizations gain the same Zero Trust strategies trusted by global leaders and mandated by governments, no SIEM required, no trade-offs made.'
