Think your basic antivirus is enough?
Cyber threats in 2025 have evolved — and it’s time to compare the old way vs a modern, all-in-one cybersecurity platform.
Feature Comparison: Old vs New
Feature | Traditional Anti-Virus | ACE CyberShield (Acronis) |
Detection | Signature-based (needs known virus definitions) | AI-powered behavioural XDR that detects unknown threats |
Backup | None | Integrated image-based backup + instant recovery |
Management | Managed device-by-device | Centralised RMM dashboard for full visibility |
Awareness | Not included | Built-in user cybersecurity training |
Grant Support | No funding | Up to 50% PSG subsidy for SMEs |
What This Means for SMEs
1. Smarter Detection
Traditional antivirus only blocks known viruses.
CyberShield uses AI + behaviour monitoring to catch new, hidden, or zero-day threats.
2. Recovery Built In
Antivirus can only remove a threat.
CyberShield can restore entire systems in minutes with image-based backup.
3. Less Manual Work
Instead of updating and checking each device individually, CyberShield gives you a unified dashboard — ideal for SMEs without an IT team.
4. Employees Become Your Defense
Human error is the number 1 cause of breaches.
CyberShield includes user awareness training to reduce risky clicks and phishing mistakes.
5. PSG Makes It Affordable
The biggest difference:
CyberShield is PSG-approved, meaning SMEs can get up to 50% funding support.
