South Africa’s leading distributor, Mustek has picked up distribution rights for Acronis backup software solutions including Acronis Active Protection from ransomware, enhanced backup validation, and blockchain-based authentication of backups with Acronis Notary.
“We are constantly looking to expand our portfolio in order to provide greater value to our stakeholders. Acronis fills a crucial gap on the software side of our backup offering, enabling us to provide a far more complete portfolio to the benefit of our customers,” says Juan Paul Gough, solutions architect at Mustek.
The distributor claims, Acronis is not only fast and easy-to-use but also can to be deployed on-premises, in the cloud or on mobile devices. In a statement, it also highlighted that with Acronis Instant Restore, recovery time objectives (RTOs) are reduced to seconds.
“With the ever-increasing threat of cyber-attacks with estimated losses of $5 000 000 000 in 2017 on ransomware alone, it’s become more important than ever for businesses and consumers alike to have peace of mind that they have a reliable backup solution in place. Preventative measures like anti-virus alone are not enough and we all need to be prepared should the unthinkable happen if we find ourselves in the midst of a system exploit. Acronis offers that peace of mind,” adds Gough.
