There has been a rapid increase from ransomware style viruses that encrypt corporate data holding the business to ransom to get their data un-encrypted costing organisation thousands of dollars and business interruption.
Recent instances of ransomware viruses mutate making them near impossible to be detected by standard Anti-Virus (AV) programs that detect only specific virus signatures.
The managed AV solution that Acronym provides uses Bit Defender as its core AV engine. Bit Defender uses a technology called Behavioural Analysis which looks for unusual behaviour, such as multiple data file encryptions or unusual internet traffic and automatically shuts down or isolating parts of the network if an intrusion is detected limiting data loss and cost to your organisation.
