software. It includes full provisioning,
reporting, and monitoring capabilities, and
in doing so, paves the way to generate
recurring revenue from sales of managed
services. Synaxon has partnered with
Autotask to provide all provisioning
and delivery of AEB via EGIS, its online
information and procurement platform.
AEB gives businesses full control and
continuity with very easy management. This
makes it easy and cost-effective to deploy
and use. As the process is automated,
it also provides much better protection
than the manual backups. AEB allows the
end-client to access and restore their data
quickly, with up to six months roll back.
This is the only true safeguard most small
firms have against ransomware and other
malicious threats.
“As the recent crisis caused by the
WannaCry attack illustrated, ransomware is
a growing problem for all organisations,”
said Jones. “Ransomware can’t be ignored
by any business, no matter how small. It
was already a massive problem and recent
events have put it well and truly into the
spotlight. We were already planning to
bring AEB to the UK market and it’s now
even more pertinent and even more of
an opportunity for our members. We now
have a superb and very well-established
partnership with Autotask, so we know
we’ll get great, local support. And we
believe there is tremendous potential for
AEB in the UK market.”
Autotask CEO Mark Cattini, said: “We
are excited to partner with Synaxon to
deliver this critical and timely business
continuity solution. Together, we will
proactively address the current epidemic of
cyber threats, by enabling Synaxon partners
to secure their customer’s data profitably
with Autotask Endpoint Backup.”
