Acronis Celebrates 15-year Anniversary, Offers Innovative Cyber Protection for All Data

The start of the official celebrations comes on the back of strong growth in its cloud business and continuous global expansion. In the last year alone, Acronis established a number of high profile partnerships with global technology vendors, including Google, and inspired exceptional research in Microsoft. Acronis also reported a 200 percent YoY growth of protected devices and 151 percent YoY growth of corporate clients. Acronis' easy, reliable, efficient, secure and private cyber protection solutions are used by 46 percent of Fortune 250 companies and the company's presence continues to grow.

Cyber protection

Acronis announced cyber protection, a new category of protection in the modern digital world that is needed to address the challenges of the rapidly growing data, sophistication of application and systems, and new security and privacy threats. Cyber protection covers safety, accessibility, privacy, authenticity, and security — the five vectors of protection covered by Acronis' innovative solutions.

Singularity City

Singularity City is a new, exciting project that will include a privately funded university and technology park. The planned university will focus on industry-driven research and software development in the area of artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and blockchain. The technology park will be designed to provide business incubation and research and development (R&D) facilities for established companies and start-ups. Acronis plans to invest 10M euros, making the Europe-based project self-sustainable over the next 10 years.

Rich history of cyber protection

Acronis was founded in Singapore in 2003 and incorporated in Switzerland five years later. During the past 15 years, the company has grown into a global leader in cyber protection.
