Encryption and Data Protection
All files are encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest with AES‑256. Encryption keys are managed by Acronis and never stored alongside customer data, reducing the risk of key‑theft.
Compliance and Certifications
The platform holds ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR compliance, demonstrating adherence to recognized security frameworks and data‑privacy regulations.
Isolation and Access Controls
Each customer operates within a dedicated virtual container, preventing cross‑tenant data leakage. Role‑based access controls (RBAC) and granular permission settings let administrators limit who can view or modify backups.
Incident Response and Monitoring
Acronis runs continuous security monitoring, intrusion detection, and employs a dedicated response team that follows defined escalation procedures for any breach or anomaly.
Practical Safeguards for Users
To maximize protection, users should enable multi‑factor authentication, regularly review access logs, and maintain up‑to‑date client software that receives security patches from Acronis.
