Introducing Integrated Identity Protection from Iris® Powered by Generali to Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office

Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office users can now access industry-leading identity monitoring and resolution services from Iris® Powered by Generali

WASHINGTON - September 19, 2023 - Iris® Powered by Generali (“Iris”), a provider of a proprietary identity and cyber protection platform, today announced the launch of a white-label version of its Identity Protection offering for Acronis' Cyber Protect Home Office solution. The service will be integrated into Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office Premium and Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office Advanced products and provide users with 24/7 access to identity monitoring and resolution services from Iris’ industry-leading support team.

Paige Schaffer, CEO of Iris, commented on the integration, “Acronis has built a reputation as being a leader in the cybersecurity space, both at the consumer and the enterprise level, which means that they always look to provide their customers with the very best. With this integration of our Iris Identity Protection solution into their Cyber Protect Home Office products, Acronis will continue to provide the world-class cyber protection that customers are used to, now backed by powerful protection tools and round-the-clock identity theft resolution experts.”

Our role as cyber protection experts is to strengthen security for our customers and provide them with the right tools to protect against cybercrime. This mission led us to integrate Iris Identity Protection into Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office. With a strong foundation in cybersecurity and reliable data backup, identity theft monitoring, resolution services, and cyber insurance, complete the solution for personal cyber protection.”
