A practical guide to VM-aware data protection for VMware-to-OpenShift migrations VMware exits rarely fail because engineers cannot move bits. They fail because the organization discovers, mid-flight, that it cannot reliably recover those bits once they land somewhere new.

Cybercriminals are spending less time using AI to develop new kinds of cyberattacks. Unfortunately, that’s not good news. According to the Acronis Cyberthreats Report H2 2025, cybercriminals are focusing on using AI to scale and refine the attacks they’ve already developed. As a result, they’re working more efficiently. The Acronis Cyberthreats Report H2 2025 delves into many more cybersecurity trends and goes into much deeper detail on the evolving impact of AI on cyberthreats.

Many operational technology (OT) environments depend on Windows 10 systems. In October 2025, Microsoft ended support for Windows 10. That doesn’t mean manufacturers have to immediately replace their systems, but it does change the risk profile related to unsupported operating systems. In OT environments, operating systems commonly reach end of support long before the industrial assets they control.

Acronis has earned a spot on CRN’s 2026 Security 100 list in the Identity, Access And Data Security category, marking its fifth consecutive year on the annual ranking. The program highlights channel focused security vendors that help organizations address a rapidly evolving threat landscape across categories such as endpoint and managed security, identity and data security, network security, security operations, and web and application security.

Outages recently disrupted 46% of organizations just in 2025, yet 47% of executives still rate their resilience as high, according to a SAS report. In other words, despite nearly half the industry facing service failures, almost half still believe they’ve solved the problem. It seems surprising. The more so in times when a single outage or vendor lock-in can halt all operations on a given platform.

Valentine’s Day is all about perfect pairs, and in cybersecurity, nothing creates more operational harmony than natively integrated services working together. That’s where unified cyber protection shines. Whether it’s the synergy of RMM and EDR, RMM and backup or email security and security awareness training, natively integrated cyber protection delivers efficiency and resilience that standalone tools can’t match.

In 2026, an antivirus solution may seem old-fashioned at first glance, like something from the era of floppy disks and dial-up. But that thought couldn’t be further from the truth. Today’s threats to your home network have evolved beyond classic malware.
