Backup + EDR in one panel
An SMB consolidates backup and EDR into one Acronis console — one agent, one bill, one workflow for ransomware recovery.

Acronis Advanced Security + EDR
EDR module on top of the Acronis Cyber Protect agent.
Quick answer
Acronis Advanced Security + EDR is the EDR add-on for Cyber Protect Cloud and Cyber Protect 16. It turns the same Acronis agent into an EDR sensor — attack chains as MITRE ATT&CK-mapped graphs, automated response playbooks, single-console workflow from detection through quarantine to backup-based recovery.
Advanced Security + EDR upgrades the Acronis agent into a full EDR sensor without adding a second agent or a second console. Attack chains are reconstructed as MITRE ATT&CK-mapped graphs; suspected lateral movement, persistence and exfiltration paths are surfaced automatically. Analysts can isolate a host from the network, kill a process, quarantine a file, collect forensic artifacts and — uniquely to Acronis — instantly restore the affected system from a known-good backup taken before patient zero.
The product is not positioned as a head-to-head competitor to CrowdStrike Falcon, SentinelOne or Trend Vision One for deep threat-hunting use cases. Its value is the integrated backup + EDR workflow: when a ransomware incident hits, the workflow from EDR detection to clean-state recovery happens in one console in minutes — not across three tools and three teams over hours.

Use CasesSMB MSP Multi-branch
When would you choose this product?
MSP service-stack consolidation
An MSP packages backup + EDR + patch management as a single offering on Cyber Protect Cloud — better margin than reselling three separate vendors.
Branch EDR coverage
A multi-branch retail chain extends EDR to every branch via the existing Acronis agent — no new rollout.
Who is it for?
Organizations that want EDR and backup in one console with backup-based ransomware recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently asked questions
How does it compare with Trend Apex One or CrowdStrike Falcon?
Apex One and Falcon are deeper, more mature EDRs with stronger threat-hunting. Acronis EDR's strength is the integrated backup + EDR workflow — the post-incident loop from detection to clean restore lives in one console. For organizations whose primary EDR concern is ransomware recovery, the integration is the differentiator.
Is full threat hunting available?
Limited. For advanced threat hunting (raw-telemetry queries, long-window retroactive searches) a dedicated EDR like Trend Vision One or CrowdStrike Falcon is the better fit. Acronis EDR focuses on detection and response with backup-based recovery as the closer.
What is the integrated backup advantage?
When a ransomware incident hits, the analyst sees the attack chain in the EDR, isolates the host, identifies the patient-zero file and triggers instant restore from a backup taken before compromise — all in the same console in minutes. With separate EDR and backup tools, the same workflow takes hours across multiple teams.
Is MITRE ATT&CK mapping done?
Yes — every detected event is tagged with MITRE ATT&CK tactic and technique IDs, and the attack tree visualization shows the techniques used at each stage.
What is the licensing model?
Add-on pack on top of Cyber Protect Cloud (per workload, monthly) or Cyber Protect 16 (per host, annual). Sora Yazilim sizes the pack per fleet tier.
Can it be used without Acronis backup?
No — the EDR sensor is part of the Acronis Cyber Protect agent, which requires the base Cyber Protect Cloud or Cyber Protect 16 license. EDR is an add-on, not a standalone product.
