Acronis enhances safety offerings with Intel® TDT technologies

SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland, March 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Acronis, a worldwide leader in cyber protection, now announced the enhancement of its safety defense against sophisticated fileless attacks employing Intel® Threat Detection Technologies (Intel® TDT) leveraging the Intel® integrated GPU to offload memory scanning operations from the CPU. Acronis is the most up-to-date cyber protection business to integrate Intel® TDT to enrich its safety solutions.

With cyber threats evolving and developing on a each day basis, Acronis researchers have witnessed new forms of malware and attack vectors on enterprises such as polymorphic malware and fileless attacks. A lot of threats make use of an in-memory-only method which can be difficult to detect. Intel® TDT technologies makes it possible for Acronis cyber protection options to totally free sources though scanning HDD and memory resulting in enhanced technique overall performance. Acronis researchers identified that though scanning all the processes in technique memory on supported CPUs, Intel® TDT decreased the load on the CPU two.4x instances, by offloading the job to the Intel® integrated GPU.

The Acronis answer combines full single-agent cyber protection with Intel® TDT. This enhancement outcomes in reduced CPU utilization which makes it possible for additional compute capacity for productivity and workplace application utilised by Acronis finish clients though compute-intensive safety operations run in the Intel® integrated GPU. The innovation of Intel® TDT will be out there by means of Acronis Cyber Guard Cloud, Acronis Cyber Guard, and Acronis Cyber Guard Residence Workplace options.

“The integration of Intel® TDT into Acronis cyber protection options is a logical step to meet the requires of our customers, stated Patrick Pulvermueller, CEO at Acronis. “During the final year, we observed that just about 50% of attacks detected had been fileless. The use of this Intel technologies is a wonderful milestone as we continue to optimize and improve our anti-malware engine.”

Story continues

“Through our collaboration with Acronis to integrate Intel® Threat Detection Technologies into their cyber protection options, clients of all sizes that make use of Intel vPro® can carry out frequent and extremely performant memory scanning. This is a wonderful advantage for our mutual clients as we assist them keep ahead of increasingly sophisticated threats,” stated Carla Rodríguez, Vice President and Basic Manager, Ecosystem Companion Enabling at Intel.

“As the IT planet grows in sophistication and continues its migration to the cloud, additional pressure has fallen on safety teams with much less-integrated technologies, making complexity and unintentional blind spots in safety systems,” stated Analysis Vice President of Safety and Trust Michael Suby at IDC. “According to a current IDC survey of 1,015 safety specialists in North America, this is specifically the case for smaller sized organizations who are much less equipped to efficiently operate separate solutions from a number of vendors or advantage from a position of strength in negotiating with a number of vendors. As such, they are additional most likely to resonate with an integrated hardware and application method to endpoint safety.”

Acronis supplies its customers with the potential to take back handle and overcome complexity with an integrated platform which outcomes in higher operational efficiency. By implementing an integrated answer like Acronis Cyber Guard Cloud, organizations can minimize the time that safety teams devote on different operational activities, reduced education charges, minimize the complexity in their atmosphere by minimizing the quantity of tools managed, and in the end drive enterprise development.
