AI is Vital for Cyber Security
AI is transforming cybersecurity and not always for the better. According to the NCSC’s 2025 review, cybercriminals most valuable asset is using AI to speed up attacks, automate phishing, and identify new vulnerabilities faster than humans can patch them
We utilise AI powered solutions to ensure your defence is ready when attackers move at machine speed
Embedded Artifical Intelligence and Machine Learning
​Acronis uses AI and ML to strengthen its award winning cybersecurity offerings, with intelligent threat detection, enhanced performance, proactive mitigation strategies, and streamlined incident response. All this is delivered within a unified platform designed to protect OT systems and ensure business continuity.
Real-Time Threat Detection and Ransomware Protection
Acronis Cyber Protect, particularly through its Active Protection feature, utilises AI and ML to monitor system processes, for anomalous or malicious behaviour, indicative of ransomware attacks. By analyzing stack traces and establishing baselines of normal system behavior, it can detect and stop ransomware and other malware, including zero-day threats, before data can be encrypted.
​
Behavioural Analysis for Unknown Threats
Beyond recognising known threats, Acronis’ ML-powered behavioural analysis identifies malicious intent based on how applications and processes behave, rather than solely on signatures. This enables detection and mitigation of unknown and emerging threats.
​
Predictive Analytics and Proactive Protection
Acronis' AI-driven threat intelligence collects data from millions of endpoints to train ML models that can predict and prevent attacks. This includes features like hard drive health monitoring, which uses ML to predict failures and prevent data loss and downtime.
​
Automated Incident Response and Remediation
AI streamlines incident response by automating triage, assessing severity, and providing remediation suggestions. AI-powered chatbots assist security analysts in understanding and responding to incidents efficiently. Acronis’ solutions also enable the creation of targeted remediation scripts during active breaches, ensuring rapid containment and minimising potential damage.
​
Simplified Management and Improved Efficiency
AI scripting capabilities in Acronis Cyber Protect allow automation of routine and complex IT and security tasks, reducing manual effort and errors. AI can also generate scripts for vulnerability scanning, incident response, and compliance verification, making these tasks faster and more reliable.
