What's new

Protection of Citrix Workspace App from direct attacks

The Citrix Workspace App could be attacked by malware that can destroy files, the registry, and inject code into the application to perform malicious actions.For example, malware from the client machine may use Workspace App to distribute itself through the company network and encrypt the data on other machines. Instead of typical antivirus solutions, Acronis provides a dedicated and unique self-defense based protection for the Workspace App and which uses kernel-level drivers to protect the Workspace App files and registry from modification and the process from code injection.

What's new

One-click updates for appliances

Appliances update can be initiated in one-click from the Cyber Protection console instead of re-deploying the appliances from scratch.
