🥇The Death of Backups: New Threats and New Protection Global Cyber Summit 2020

Hello everyone! The year 2020 has just begun, and we are already opening registrations for a global event in the field of cybersecurity – Acronis Global Cyber Summit 2020. The event will take place in the USA from October 19 to 21, featuring industry leaders in security and IT, along with dozens of sessions and certification courses. Who will be there, what they will discuss, why it’s important, and how to attend the summit at a much lower cost – all the information is below.

Last year, we held the Acronis Global Cyber Summit for the first time, and the event received numerous positive reviews. In 2019, we essentially introduced the open platform Acronis Cyber Platform, which allows integration of Acronis services with the partner ecosystem. The 2020 summit, scheduled at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel in Miami, Florida, will focus on the latest trends and technologies in modern cybersecurity — a transformative IT discipline that enables organizations to become information-secured, or as we call it, #CyberFit.

«In 2019, we started the cybersecurity revolution, highlighting the importance of integrating data protection and cybersecurity. The response was overwhelming, especially within the Acronis community, and now the industry understands why traditional backup is a thing of the past, - said Belousov. - In anticipation of the Acronis Global Cyber Summit 2020, we will continue to expand our ecosystem of cybersecurity solutions and change the methods of protecting data, applications, and systems within organizations.».

The summit is set to be an event where leading professionals in cybersecurity will gather. We aim to cover as many ideas, strategies, and solutions as possible and create a foundation for industry collaboration to develop new, more advanced systems for protecting critical data and systems.

Among the prominent guests and speakers at the 2019 forum were renowned thought leaders such as:

Sergey Belousov, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Acronis
Robert Herjavec, one of the organizers and founder of Herjavec Group
Eric O’Neill, former member of the FBI's cyberterrorism unit
Keren Elazari, a globally recognized analyst, researcher, author, and speaker
Lance Crosby, founder of SoftLayer, who earned more than $2 billion by selling his company to IBM. He is currently the CEO of StackPath.

The forum program targets CIOs, IT infrastructure development managers, provider executives, as well as resellers and ISVs. In 2020, around 2,000 participants are expected, and the additional program of networking meetings promises to be very active. As noted by James Murphy, VP of DevTech for international sales, at last year's event: "The Acronis Global Cyber Summit is one of the best events we sponsored in 2019. The venue, content, and participants fully met our expectations of a successful conference. It was also an exceptional opportunity for networking. We will return in 2020!"

In addition to discussing trends and the direction of industry development with global thought leaders, as well as networking with colleagues and potential partners in a relaxed setting, the summit will also feature innovative solutions from leading companies and startups. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on workshops and training in IT and security. Panel discussions and presentations will be complemented by special events to foster collaboration and create new directions in the field of cybersecurity.

On the first day, participants will be able to expand their knowledge of technologies and receive a certificate of completion for a cybersecurity training course, followed by an evening gala reception.

During the event, the focus will be on transforming data protection systems, which now must not only ensure the preservation of backups but also guarantee protection against malware, endpoint security, and the ability to manage PCs and devices.
