Case Study: Wyman Real Estate achieves rapid phishing recovery and proactive patching with Acronis Cyber Protect

Wyman Real Estate experiences integrated prevention, detection, and response with Acronis Cyber Protect

Wyman Real Estate, led by Michael Wyman, had been an Acronis customer since 2014, using Acronis to back up over 1 TB of business and personal data across its computers as it moved to a paperless office. The firm faced a serious phishing incident that executed malicious code undetected by its prior antivirus, and a vulnerability assessment revealed missing Chrome and Windows patches that left systems exposed — challenges Wyman sought to address with Acronis Cyber Protect.

Acronis deployed Acronis Cyber Protect’s integrated backup, anti‑malware, vulnerability assessment, and patch‑management features; the solution immediately terminated the phishing‑related process, restored 14 affected Outlook files, and automatically detected and applied Chrome and Windows updates. As a result, Wyman Real Estate avoided data loss, closed critical security gaps, improved recovery time objective by nearly 30%, and expanded protection by upgrading its Acronis subscription to cover additional computers.
