Acronis outlines six capabilities MSPs should test across client environments, from reducing exposure and detecting attacks to preserving recovery points and restoring operations quickly. [...]","Acronis has released a six-point checklist for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to enhance ransomware resilience and speed up recovery for their clients. The checklist emphasizes capabilities beyond basic backups and endpoint detection, focusing on reducing exposure, detecting attacks early, providing 24\u002F7 response, preserving isolated recovery points, enabling clean recovery, and ensuring consistent operation across tenants. The report highlights that phishing and unpatched vulnerabilities remain primary access vectors for ransomware attacks against MSPs.","Acronis offers a 6-point checklist for MSPs to improve ransomware
