iConnect & Acronis Partnership
Acronis is a global cyber protection leader founded in Switzerland, delivering the only natively integrated platform that unifies cybersecurity, backup, disaster recovery, and endpoint management. Its flagship solution, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, combines AI-driven malware prevention, EDR, XDR, MDR, email security, and data loss prevention into a single agent — enabling organisations to meet stringent compliance requirements including ISO 27001, NIS2, IEC 62443, and UAE data sovereignty mandates.
Through its partnership with Acronis, iConnect delivers end-to-end cyber protection across physical, virtual, cloud, and hybrid environments. Clients across the UAE and wider Middle East benefit from Acronis’ Abu Dhabi-based Cyber Cloud data centre, ensuring data residency, faster access, and continuous availability — critical for regulated industries operating under CBUAE, ADHICS, and NCA ECC frameworks.
iConnect tailors every Acronis deployment to match each client’s infrastructure, risk profile, and regulatory obligations — whether a phased rollout for an SMB or a full-stack enterprise implementation across distributed sites.
Our Acronis Expertise
iConnect’s certified engineers have deployed Acronis Cyber Protect and Cyber Protect Cloud across banking, government, healthcare, energy, and logistics sectors in the UAE. Our team delivers the full Acronis portfolio — from initial scoping and licensing through to managed operations and ongoing optimisation.
Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud — Integrated Cyber Protection
iConnect deploys and manages Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, unifying backup, anti-malware, patch management, and endpoint management under a single console. Clients gain full visibility across workloads with reduced operational complexity and measurable reduction in mean time to recovery.
Acronis XDR & EDR — Extended and Endpoint Detection & Response
Our certified engineers deploy Acronis XDR and Acronis EDR to deliver AI-driven threat detection, automated response, and forensic investigation across endpoints. Acronis XDR has achieved SE Labs' AAA certification with 100% detection accuracy, providing enterprise-grade protection for UAE clients.
Acronis MDR — Managed Detection & Response
iConnect delivers Acronis MDR as a fully managed security service — providing 24/7 monitoring, threat hunting, and incident response by expert analysts. MDR extends beyond technology to encompass the people and processes needed to defend against advanced persistent threats targeting Middle East organisations.
Acronis Advanced Email Security — Anti-Phishing & Threat Protection
With email phishing driving 83% of all threats in H2 2025, iConnect deploys Acronis Advanced Email Security to protect Microsoft 365 and on-premises mail environments. The solution blocks spam, phishing, business email compromise, and advanced email threats before they reach end-users.
Acronis Advanced Backup & Disaster Recovery
iConnect architects and manages Acronis Advanced Backup and Disaster Recovery solutions — supporting bare-metal restore, cloud-to-cloud backup, and replication to Acronis' Abu Dhabi data centre for full UAE data sovereignty. Clients achieve recovery time objectives measured in minutes, not hours.
Acronis Advanced DLP & Security Awareness Training
iConnect configures Acronis' behavioural-based Data Loss Prevention to protect sensitive information across endpoints, cloud, and SaaS platforms. Paired with Acronis Security Awareness Training, organisations build a human firewall alongside technical defences — reducing the risk of insider threats and social engineering attacks.
