Acronis True Image 2019 Includes Cyber Protection That Stopped More Than $100 Million In Ransomware DamagesSHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland, Aug. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Acronis, a global leader in cyber protection and hybrid cloud solutions, today released the 15-year Anniversary Edition of its award-winning personal backup software, Acronis True Image 2019. In making the announcement, Acronis revealed that its artificial intelligence-based anti-ransomware technology – which is integrated into all of its backup solutions, including the new product – stopped more than 200,000 ransomware attacks on 150,000 customers last year. With current ransoms demanding an average of $522 per attack, the defense prevented more than $104 million in damages. The success of personal backup software with an integrated anti-ransomware shield is the latest example of how Acronis constantly redefines what modern data protection is. That leadership is why Acronis' technology is relied on by users of all types – from top sports organizations like Arsenal Football Club and Williams Martini Formula 1 Racing, to everyday people like Diana Rhodes. "I have used Acronis for 10 years," explained Rhodes. "I would not trust my treasured memories or my operating system and programs to anyone else. Acronis has saved me and the companies I work for on more than one occasion." Innovative leadership Today, Acronis True Image 2019 is the only home solution that allows users to make full image backups to both local and cloud storage, or lets users clone an active system disk on either a Windows or Mac machine – capabilities that strengthen the user's control over their data protection and management. President of Acronis John Zanni nots, "How people use data is constantly changing, as are the threats to that data. To create the kind of modern protection users need, our approach is to deliver total cyber protection, blending proven backup with effective security features. The Anniversary Edition of Acronis True Image continues that long-standing commitment." The Anniversary Edition of Acronis' award-winning personal backup solution includes enhancements designed to meet the growing need for protection that is safe, accessible, private, authentic and secure. As a result, Acronis establishes a new level of cyber protection that is easy-to-use, efficient, and secure. Easy backup While Acronis True Image is known for its ability to let users recover their system to the same or dissimilar hardware, improved WinPE media makes the power of Universal Restore even greater. The new WinPE builder streamlines media creation by detecting network adapters and configuring network settings so a user can recover their system through an Ethernet connection as well as a Wi-Fi network. Efficient operations Some of the enhancements in the 2019 release relate to improving performance rather than adding capabilities. A new file-to-cloud format, for example, increases the reliability and performance of cloud backups for both Windows and Mac, while adjustments to the program's interface are designed to make the user experience even more intuitive.
