This is applicable to the UI of Management Portal, the default status of the 2FA parameter remains the same (disabled) in the Account Management API v2 for backward compatibility reasons.

For more details, refer to "Creating a tenant" in the Acronis Cyber Cloud Partner Guide.

Advanced tenant access management

It is now possible to manage the "Support access" parameter during the tenant creation.

For convenience it is called "Management mode" and provides two options:

  • Managed by service provider (equals to enabled "Support access")
  • Self-service (equals to disabled "Support access", selected by default)

This is applicable to the UI of Management Portal, the default status of the "Management mode" parameter remains the same ("Managed by service provider") in the Account Management API v2 for backward compatibility reasons.

For more details, refer to "Creating a tenant" in the Acronis Cyber Cloud Partner Guide.

Enhanced password strength policy

  • The minimum password length is 8 symbols (previously, it was 6).
  • The entered password (its hash) is automatically checked versus
    • The most popular bad passwords database,
    • The top leaked passwords database (Have I Been Pwned),
    • The user name,
    • The company name.

The nice and useful password strength meter was added.

This is applicable to the UI of Management Portal, the password strength policy is kept unmodified in the Account Management API v2 for backward compatibility reasons.

Management Portal performance improved

  • Overall navigation performance improved.
  • Special optimizations were done to make Management Portal capable of handling 70K+ customers within the same partner.

The branding options are extended to support sophisticated network configurations

It is now possible to customize URLs of the Agent Gateway and Registration Server components of Acronis Cyber Cloud on a partner tenant level.

It was done to unlock support of sophisticated network configurations and scenarios, for example, access to Acronis Cyber Cloud from non-public IP addresses.
