Itway Group signs a strategic partnership with Acronis to strengthen corporate cybersecurity

We continue to enhance our presence in the field of cybersecurity through a new strategic partnership with Acronis, a global leader in cybersecurity and data protection. This collaboration allows us to anticipate an increase in revenue of 1.5 million over the next three years, offering advanced cyber recovery solutions for key sectors such as Service Providers, Public Administration, Healthcare, Banking and Insurance, Energy, Manufacturing, and Large-scale Distribution.

Founded in 2003, Acronis has a solid international presence with over 50 data centers, many of which are located in Europe, including Italy. Initially specialized in data protection, Acronis has pioneered the field of cyber recovery, evolving its platform to integrate “cyber clean recovery” functionalities against ransomware attacks, supported by dedicated analytics in its cloud. With various deployment models—on-premises, SaaS, and Managed Service—all based on a single agent, Acronis today stands out as a benchmark for rapid and effective recovery following a cyber attack, in line with the dynamic and complex reality of cyber resiliency.

Andrea Farina, President of the Itway Group, emphasizes the importance of this collaboration: “Our partnership with Acronis is strategic because it allows us to offer reliable solutions for cyber recovery in an era of increasing cyber threats. Collaborating with a prestigious brand like Acronis enhances our credibility in the market and allows us to extend our Managed Service offering for cyber recovery, services that are increasingly in demand from clients who choose to rely on specialized experts.”

An Integrated Approach to Cyber Resiliency

Acronis adopts an advanced vision of cybersecurity, offering solutions that go beyond simple data backup, including threat prevention, attack detection, and rapid system recovery in a protected environment. Francesco Faenzi, Director of the Cyber Security & Resiliency Business Unit at Itway, adds: “Our approach to resiliency and recovery requires constant monitoring and immediate reaction capability. Thanks to our partnership with Acronis, we at Itway can offer a Cyber Recovery service that represents a fundamental pillar for managing cybersecurity resilience, an essential component of modern cyber risk mitigation strategies.”

Convergence of Goals for a Safer Future

The agreement is met with great satisfaction by Denis Valter Cassinerio, Senior Director & General Manager South EMEA at Acronis, who comments: “Itway is a well-established partner in the cybersecurity sector, with an innovative and strategic approach. We share the goal of strengthening the cybersecurity resilience of businesses, from SMEs to large enterprises, especially in light of regulations like NIS2.”

Acronis solutions, integrated with our managed services, provide a concrete response to the growing security needs of companies, contributing to their digital transformation and the overall improvement of cybersecurity levels.
