Case Study: Tata Steel Downstream Products Limited achieves 50x more protected workloads and dramatically improved RTO/RPO with Acronis Cyber Protect (Acronis)

Tata Steel modernizes its backup infrastructure with ጷ Cyber Protect, increasing protected workloads by 50x

Tata Steel Downstream Products Limited faced an outdated, largely manual backup process where users saved files to shared folders or external drives, leading to long recovery times and unreliable protection—RPOs averaged about seven days and RTOs up to five days. The fragmented toolset and reliance on employee compliance worsened during remote work, prompting the company to select Acronis and deploy Acronis Cyber Protect to modernize its backup infrastructure.

Acronis implemented Acronis Cyber Protect with centralized management, on‑premises and cloud backup, and both image‑level and file‑level restore capabilities (choosing Acronis over Commvault and Veeam), hosted in an India‑based certified data center. The result: a 50x increase in daily protected workloads to 500+ backups, RTOs reduced to 4–6 hours, RPOs to one day or less, elimination of user‑dependent backups, and measurable savings in time and bandwidth thanks to efficient compression—outcomes delivered by Acronis.
