₹28 Lakh

What is Acronis Cyber Protect?
Acronis Cyber Protect is the unified data protection platform from Acronis that combines backup, anti-ransomware, endpoint detection and response, vulnerability assessment, patch management, and disaster recovery in one agent and one console, with AcronisCloud Mumbai region storage for India data residency. The workhorse edition is Cyber Backup at around INR 1,800 per workload per month, the image-and-file backup engine with immutable cloud copies.
The platform is one agent, not a stack. Active Protection watches for ransomware behaviour and rolls back encrypted files automatically, the Advanced edition adds full anti-malware and patch management, and the Disaster Recovery add-on spins up failover servers in AcronisCloud Mumbai. Sirius Star bundles the licences plus India delivery into one INR invoice. See the vendor overview on the official Acronis Cyber Protect page, and note that Microsoft documents the customer backup duty itself under the Microsoft shared responsibility model.

Same agent. Three edition shapes. We pick the cheapest correct mix from your workload and endpoint inventory in the free 24-hour readiness review.
Acronis Cyber Protect Standard plus Sirius Star managed
One agent takes image and file backup to AcronisCloud Mumbai, adds Active Protection anti-ransomware that rolls back encrypted files, and runs vulnerability assessment across every server, virtual machine, and laptop. Sirius Star wraps it with agent rollout, retention policy tuning, a first clean restore test, and a quarterly review. Pair with Microsoft Sentinel to stream detections into your India-region SOC workspace.
Standard from ₹2,400 per workload · managed retainer from ₹24,500 per tenant per month
Cyber Backup and Microsoft 365 backup
For estates that need backup only, with no security overlay yet. Image backup to AcronisCloud Mumbai plus point-in-time backup of Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. Pairs with Veeam Backup where deep virtual backup is the priority.
Cyber Backup ₹1,800 per workload · M365 backup ₹250 per user
Cyber Protect Advanced and Disaster Recovery
Advanced adds full anti-malware EDR, patch management, and URL filtering. The Disaster Recovery add-on gives runbook failover to AcronisCloud Mumbai with a 15-minute recovery point. See the platform scope on the Acronis Disaster Recovery page.

Free · 24 hours
Edition right-sizing and per-workload mix
We map each workload to the cheapest correct edition. Backup-only servers get Cyber Backup, production servers and laptops get Standard with anti-ransomware, high-risk workloads get Advanced, and only the workloads that need a 15-minute recovery point get the Disaster Recovery add-on. You sign off the mix before a single licence is bought, so there is no shelfware.
Week 1
Agent rollout and first backup live in 2 to 10 weeks
Acronis Cyber Protect agents deploy in cohort waves, retention policies are set against your compliance window, AcronisCloud Mumbai storage is configured, and we run a real restore test rather than trusting a green tick. Microsoft Intune handles the agent push where laptops are managed.
Weeks 2-10
Quarterly Acronis Cyber Protect review and incident-response runbook
A quarterly review checks backup success rates, restore test results, retention drift, and ransomware detections. We hand your team a recovery runbook with restore playbooks and escalation paths, aligned to ISO 27001 and CERT-In incident-reporting expectations.

Is Acronis Cyber Protect right for your Indian business?
Acronis Cyber Protect from Sirius Star Enterprise Technologies is an edition right-sizing, licence procurement, agent rollout, retention tuning, restore testing, and quarterly review service for Indian businesses protecting 10 to 5,000 workloads and endpoints, delivered from Vashi, Navi Mumbai with a 4-hour quote SLA, AcronisCloud Mumbai region storage, and a free 24-hour backup review.
You are the right buyer if:
- 10 to 5,000 servers, virtual machines, and laptops to protect
- You want backup and anti-ransomware in one agent, not two tools
- Microsoft 365 mailboxes and files need a real backup, not retention
- Data residency requires Indian storage under DPDP
- You need a 15-minute recovery point on critical workloads
- Your board or MEITY wants a documented recovery posture
If you only need deep backup of a large virtual estate and the security stack is handled elsewhere, Veeam Backup is often the cheaper correct answer. If you already run a strong managed endpoint product and only need cloud backup, the Cyber Backup edition without the security modules is the right starting point. Sirius Star will tell you so in the review.
Acronis Cyber Protect vs Veeam vs Microsoft 365 retention, honest call
Acronis Cyber Protect wins when an Indian business wants backup, anti-ransomware, and endpoint protection in one agent instead of stitching a backup tool to a separate antivirus, and when AcronisCloud Mumbai region storage is needed for residency. Sirius Star runs this across 200-plus Indian businesses. Veeam Backup wins when the priority is deep backup of large virtual estates and security is handled separately, and cloud backup and disaster recovery is the wider service if your shortlist is still open.
Microsoft 365 retention and the recycle bin are not a backup, because they guard against accidental deletion for a window, not ransomware or a 7-year retention rule, which is why a real backup matters even on a healthy Microsoft 365 Business Premium tenant. For endpoint-first detection see Sophos Intercept X with MDR and Microsoft Defender for Business, for the console identity layer see Microsoft Entra ID, for data-flow cataloguing see Microsoft Purview, and for endpoint data handling pair with Secure Data Guard. The edition-mix decision lands in the free Acronis Cyber Protect review, not in a brochure comparison.
Acronis Cyber Protect FAQ for Indian businesses
What does Acronis Cyber Protect cost in India in 2026?
Acronis Cyber Protect India pricing through Sirius Star starts at around INR 1,800 per workload per month for the Cyber Backup edition with AcronisCloud Mumbai region storage. Cyber Protect Standard adds Active Protection anti-ransomware and vulnerability assessment at around INR 2,400 per workload per month, and Cyber Protect Advanced adds full anti-malware EDR, patch management, and URL filtering at around INR 3,500 per workload per month. Microsoft 365 backup runs at around INR 250 per user per month, and the Disaster Recovery add-on runs at around INR 2,200 per workload per month.
Sirius Star managed delivery and the quarterly review retainer start at around INR 24,500 per tenant per month. Most Indian estates start on Standard and add Disaster Recovery only on the workloads that need a 15-minute recovery point. Sirius Star sizes the mix in the free readiness review.
Acronis Cyber Protect or Veeam or Microsoft 365 retention?
Veeam is the right answer when the priority is deep backup of large virtual estates and the security stack is handled separately. Microsoft 365 retention and the recycle bin are not a backup at all, because they protect against accidental deletion for a limited window, not against ransomware encryption, malicious admin action, or a 7-year retention requirement.
Acronis Cyber Protect wins when an Indian business wants backup, anti-ransomware, and endpoint protection in one agent instead of stitching a backup tool to a separate antivirus, and when AcronisCloud Mumbai region storage is needed for residency. Sirius Star sizes the choice against your actual estate and will recommend Veeam where deep backup alone is the cheaper correct answer. Compare the customer backup duty in the Microsoft shared responsibility docs.
Does Acronis Cyber Protect keep Indian data in India for DPDP?
Yes. Acronis Cyber Protect can store backups and disaster recovery copies in the AcronisCloud Mumbai region, which keeps protected data inside India for DPDP residency. Sirius Star configures the Mumbai storage region and gates the management console with Microsoft Entra ID conditional access and phishing-resistant MFA.
Security detections stream to an India-region Microsoft Sentinel workspace, data flows are catalogued in Microsoft Purview, and the platform is paired with Secure Data Guard at INR 749 per device per month for endpoint data handling. The cross-border posture and retention schedule are documented in the data fiduciary register per the MEITY DPDP framework.
How long does an Acronis Cyber Protect deployment take in India?
A 10 to 30 workload Cyber Backup or Standard rollout to AcronisCloud Mumbai typically takes the first backup live in 2 to 4 weeks including agent deployment and policy tuning. A 30 to 150 workload estate adding Microsoft 365 backup and the Disaster Recovery add-on typically runs 4 to 8 weeks with cohort agent waves. A full programme above 300 workloads with disaster recovery runbooks and SOC integration typically runs 8 to 10 weeks. Sirius Star timeboxes the rollout at the start so the steering committee knows when each workload is protected and when the first clean restore test is scheduled.
