Acronis, a global provider of cybersecurity and data protection solutions, has launched Acronis Cyber Protect Local, a fully integrated cyber resilience platform designed for on-premises, sovereign private cloud, and air-gapped IT and operational technology (OT) environments. The solution delivers backup, recovery, cybersecurity, and endpoint management from a single unified platform, reducing complexity while ensuring agility and compliance.
Cyber Protect Local is built for organizations that cannot rely on cloud-based deployment due to regulatory, security, or operational requirements. By keeping data completely within the organization’s perimeter, the platform supports strict data sovereignty and compliance standards. It is compatible with both legacy systems and modern virtualization platforms, including Windows XP, OT/ICS environments, Nutanix, Proxmox, VMware, and Hyper-V, providing full coverage across diverse infrastructures.
The solution also includes integrated endpoint security and management capabilities. Features such as automated discovery of unmanaged devices through Device Sense™ help simplify operations, reduce tool sprawl, and enable proactive protection. Seamless migration and recovery workflows, including P2V, V2V, and cross-platform restoration, are supported without requiring multiple agents or complex manual procedures.
“Critical infrastructure environments still rely on outdated software and hardware, making them highly vulnerable to cyber threats,” said Gaidar Magdanurov, President at Acronis. “Acronis Cyber Protect Local delivers the resilience of our cloud platform directly on-premises, ensuring secure operations for sectors that require strict data control while enabling faster recovery and reduced risk.”
By consolidating multiple cyber protection tools into one platform, Cyber Protect Local boosts operational efficiency, lowers total cost of ownership, and strengthens incident response readiness. AI-driven automation, anomaly detection, self-service recovery, and SIEM integration help both technical and non-technical teams respond quickly to disruptions.
