Yesterday we had the pleasure of attending the Acronis Cyber Day Benelux 2026 at InnStyle in Maarssen, a beautiful lakeside venue that provided the perfect setting for a day full of innovation, inspiration, and great conversations.
After collecting our badge and grabbing the first coffee of the day, it was time to join the sessions and hear from the Acronis team and industry experts. One thing became clear immediately: Acronis has built an impressive Benelux team over the past months. It was great to reconnect with familiar faces and catch up with old friends from the Acronis ecosystem. The energy throughout the day was contagious, and for good reason.
As AI adoption continues to accelerate among Hosting Providers, Managed Service Providers and end customers, new challenges are emerging. Organizations are embracing tools like ChatGPT and other GenAI solutions, but with that comes the growing risk of data leakage, shadow AI, and malicious prompt manipulation.
Acronis is addressing these challenges head-on with the introduction of Acronis GenAI Protection, extending its cyber protection platform into the AI era. The new capabilities provide visibility and control over AI usage, help prevent sensitive information from being shared with unauthorized AI tools, and protect organizations against malicious prompt injection attacks. Integrated AI-powered security and automation are becoming increasingly important for service providers looking to scale securely.
Besides the exciting technology announcements, the event once again showed the strength of the Acronis community. The combination of inspiring sessions, practical insights, and open discussions with partners made this a valuable day for everyone involved.
We left Maarssen with plenty of energy and inspiration on how we can bring these innovations to our partners through the Realtime Register Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Pay-As-You-Go offering. With no commitments, partners get access to the full range of Acronis cyber protection solutions, including the latest GenAI Protection capabilities, allowing MSPs and hosting providers to grow their security services at their own pace.
A big thank you to the entire Acronis Benelux team for organizing a fantastic event. We are already looking forward to the next one.
