Preserve up time in OT environments with Acronis OT protection

In industrial and critical infrastructure environments, every second of downtime impacts production, safety and revenue. OT systems run on aging hardware, legacy operating systems and remote, air-gapped facilities where IT support is limited - making fast, reliable recovery essential.

In this live Acronis Academy webinar, you’ll learn how Acronis OT solutions protect every OT PC from the Windows XP era to today; enable local recovery without IT; and deliver industry-validated resilience trusted by the world’s leading automation vendors.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why OT system downtime is one of the highest-cost risks in manufacturing, energy and industrial environments.
  • How Acronis protects SCADA, HMI, DCS, historians, jump servers and other OT PCs — even decades-old systems.
  • How to eliminate production downtime with live installation and no-reboot backups.
  • How Acronis One-Click Recovery enables any plant worker, even those without IT skills, to restore a system in minutes.
  • How Acronis supports air-gapped, remote and multisite OT environments.
  • Real examples of OT teams reducing outages from hours or days to minutes.

By joining this session, you will:

  • Understand the unique challenges in OT environments - Legacy OSs, remote sites, compliance needs and air gapping — and how Acronis addresses them.
  • Learn how to position, package, and communicate OT resilience services to plant leadership, engineering teams and industrial clients.
  • Gain practical knowledge on protecting OT PCs without taking them offline, rebooting, or interrupting production.
  • Discover how to deliver ultra-fast recovery, even in environments with no local IT or remote access.
  • Learn how to standardize backup practices across multiple sites, OT system types and hardware generations.
  • Get strategies for aligning OT protection with compliance frameworks (NERC / GxP, sector-specific mandates, cyber-insurance requirements).
  • Be fully prepared to take the related certification exam.

This session will leave you confident and ready to protect legacy and modern OT systems, preserve uptime and deliver measurable value to industrial clients and prepare you for official Acronis certification exams.
