Etisalat and Acronis are working together to ensure the digital space in the United Arab Emirates(UAE) is topnotch.

The Etisalat brand helps drive the digital future to empower societies by building the network of tomorrow, today.

Acronis cyber protection helps sports teams avoid downtime, data breaches and mitigate security breaches. Airspeeder partnered with Acronis to ensure its operations are not compromised and that the terabytes of data shared between speeders and the technical teams supporting them will remain entirely secure. The partnership is supported by Teknov8, a Managed Service Provider, helping Acronis deliver cyber protection solutions in the most effective and efficient way.

The need for both effective data protection and cybersecurity has become dominant in daily life. Businesses rely on the continuous availability and integrity of their data, while individuals around the world send and receive large volumes of sensitive information over remote connections. Cybercriminals, in response, have stepped up the scale and complexity of their attacks — and with advances in the automation of these threats, no one is “too small to target.” “The past two years have changed the industry landscape for good, any business or user is a potential target,” said Acronis GM for MEA, Peter French. “Combining cybersecurity and backup is the only way to keep critical data truly protected and our digital spaces safe.”
