Read the first 7 Compliance & Licensing Requirements flashcards as text

  1. Which Acronis product tier is specifically designed for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and includes multi-tenant licensing management?

    Answer: Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud

    Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is built for MSPs and includes multi-tenant architecture with per-tenant licensing management through the management portal.

  2. Under HIPAA's Security Rule, which Acronis encryption setting best satisfies the requirement to protect ePHI (electronic Protected Health Information) at rest?

    Answer: AES-256 encryption applied to backup archives

    HIPAA's Security Rule requires appropriate technical safeguards for ePHI at rest; AES-256 encryption of backup archives meets this requirement.

  3. An Acronis partner wants to resell Acronis Cloud services to end customers. Which agreement must they sign with Acronis before doing so?

    Answer: Partner Program Agreement (PPA) or similar reseller agreement

    Resellers must execute a Partner Program Agreement with Acronis that grants them the right to market and resell Acronis services to end customers.

  4. What is the key distinction between a 'subscription' license and a 'perpetual' license in Acronis products?

    Answer: Subscription licenses grant usage rights for a defined period; perpetual licenses grant indefinite usage rights for that version

    A subscription license is time-bound (e.g., 1 or 3 years) while a perpetual license grants the right to use a specific version indefinitely, though both may require active maintenance for updates.

  5. Which SOX (Sarbanes-Oxley Act) provision most directly requires that financial data backups be retained and protected with access controls?

    Answer: Section 802 — Criminal Penalties for Altering Documents

    SOX Section 802 criminalizes the alteration, destruction, or falsification of records, making backup integrity and access controls a legal requirement for financial records.

  6. In Acronis Cyber Protect, what does the 'immutable backup' feature provide in the context of compliance?

    Answer: Backups that cannot be modified or deleted for a defined retention period

    Immutable backups use WORM (Write Once Read Many) technology to prevent alteration or deletion, satisfying compliance requirements like SEC Rule 17a-4 and FINRA.

  7. When an Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud customer terminates their service, what is the typical obligation regarding their backup data according to data protection regulations?

    Answer: The service provider must delete customer data within a defined period after contract termination

    GDPR and similar regulations require that data processors delete personal data after the service relationship ends, typically within 30–90 days as specified in the Data Processing Agreement.
