New Acronis CEO Seeks MSP Growth Through Platform Expansion

Prakash Panjwani, formerly of WatchGuard, became Acronis' new CEO and is directing the company to expand its managed detection and response (MDR) and extended detection and response (XDR) offerings to consolidate security spending for managed service providers (MSPs). The strategy includes integrating artificial intelligence (AI)-driven remediation, technician automation, and defining an acquisition plan by early 2027.

Why it matters: MSPs and their customers should monitor Acronis' platform consolidation and acquisition strategy to understand how their current vendor landscape may shift and what new capabilities or competing integrations may affect their security stacks.
