DRAAS for Acronis

Outsmart Disasters with DRaaS That Fights Ransomware – Recover Critical Systems in Minutes, Not Days

Downtime is inevitable. Data loss isn’t. Palmiq’s Acronis-powered DRaaS combines AI-driven threat blocking, immutable backups, and 1-click failover to keep your business running – no matter the crisis.

As a CISO, IT Director, or Business Continuity Leader, you know disasters don’t discriminate: ransomware, natural events, or human error can cripple operations overnight. Traditional disaster recovery plans fail when backups are compromised or recovery times drag. Palmiq’s Acronis Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) delivers automated, ransomware-proof resilience with ≤15-minute RTO, isolated recovery environments, and quarterly failover testing. With Acronis’ AI-powered Cyber Protect Cloud, we ensure your DR plan isn’t just a document – it’s an ironclad guarantee.
