MSP Summit 2026: Arcserve Brings Efficient Ransomware Resilience and New Growth Opportunities

Arcserve, a pioneer in unified data resilience solutions, announced that brung its recovery-first approach to cyber resilience to the MSP Summit in Orlando, Florida.Built for the way MSPs work, the Arcserve portfolio unites image-based recovery, automated recovery verification, immutable storage, and SaaS backup under one vendor, so partners can prove recoverability, protect more workloads per technician, and grow recurring revenue.

he Arcserve portfolio helps service providers protect diverse customer environments with backup and recovery, immutable storage, SaaS backup, and broader data protection. It is designed to support service providers’ businesses without adding headcount or management consoles, Arcserve helps MSPs expand their managed services offerings to grow their business and increase margins.

At the MSP Summit, Arcserve will showcase a portfolio focused on the outcomes MSPs need now:

Recovery readiness
Centralized oversight
Protection for infrastructure and SaaS data
Simple operations
Flexible service packaging
Dependable opportunities for recurring revenue.

Why AI-Enabled Ransomware Is Changing the MSP Conversation Now
MSPs are prime ransomware targets: around 75% experienced at least one breach in the past twelve months. At the same time, hybrid and SaaS environments, tool sprawl, tighter compliance demands, and technician shortages raise cost and risk. Customers expect stronger protection and faster response, so resilience must be operational, recoverable, and profitable for MSPs.

Recent Arcserve research shows how central ransomware has become to partner conversations. Roughly 50% of partners discuss ransomware with customers weekly, and about a quarter discuss it daily. Immutable backup is the leading customer discussion, followed by broader SaaS data protection. That demand shapes the practical, outcome-focused conversations Arcserve will bring to the MSP Summit.

Arcserve is an event sponsor at the MSP Summit 2026 and will host product demonstrations, technical and business conversations, and Arcserve MSP dinners during the show. The focus stays on customer outcomes: protected recovery data, verified readiness, broader coverage, and services that scale across many customer environments.

Arcserve provides MSPs reliable data resilience products plus technology innovation, technical enablement, and go-to-market programs built specifically for service providers. The commitment reflects the role MSPs play as strategic partners in delivering data resilience and ransomware recovery services for businesses worldwide.

“MSPs are being asked to protect more customer data across increasingly complex environments, while keeping services simple, affordable, and scalable. The Arcserve team at the MSP Summit will drive practical conversations about how proven recovery, immutable storage, and SaaS backup help partners strengthen customer resilience and create services that grow with their businesses,” said Hannes Migga-Vierke, senior director, MSP, Arcserve.

Flexible Microsoft Hyper-V Protection for MSP Operations with Arcserve ShadowProtect 8.0
Arcserve ShadowProtect is a long-standing image-based backup and disaster recovery solution for MSPs. Version 8.0 adds native, host-based backup for Hyper-V environments, reducing in-guest components and simplifying management across multi-tenant deployments. Agent-based protection remains available where deeper application awareness and recovery precision matter.
Paired with Arcserve ImageManager 8.1, MSPs gain clearer, more auditable verification through verification dashboards, exportable history, and new reporting APIs.

Native, host-based Hyper-V protection that simplifies operations and supports lower-cost hypervisor strategies while preserving fast recovery options
ImageManager 8.1 verification history and reporting that give MSPs clearer operational visibility and auditable proof of recoverability
Flexible protection model selection, applying agent-based protection where application awareness matters and host-based protection where scale and simplicity are the priorities

For MSPs, that means standardized recovery workflows technicians can repeat across every customer, verified recovery readiness they can show to customers, insurers, and auditors, fewer moving parts to license and maintain, and less time spent on escalations.

Ransomware Defense Through Immutable Offsite Copies with Arcserve Cloud Cyber Resilient Storage
Arcserve Cloud Cyber Resilient Storage adds integrated immutable cloud storage that works with ShadowProtect workflows through ImageManager and the MSP management portal. Cloud Cyber Resilient Storage keeps a protected, tamper-resistant backup copy intact even when attackers encrypt or destroy local backups.

Immutable cloud storage that supports ransomware defense and the final immutable copy in a 3-2-1-1-0 backup strategy
Integrated workflows that simplify management and service packaging for MSP teams
Service tier options that give MSPs an accessible way to add immutable, offsite storage and expand monthly recurring revenue

Independent Protection for Critical SaaS Data with Arcserve SaaS Backup
Arcserve SaaS Backup provides cloud-to-cloud backup for critical SaaS application data, designed for centralized, multi-tenant MSP operations. New Microsoft Entra ID protection pricing gives MSPs a clearer path to make identity recovery part of standard SaaS protection, which matters because Microsoft Entra ID is the control plane for Microsoft 365 access, users, roles, and permissions.

Coverage for critical SaaS platforms, including Microsoft 365, Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Google Workspace, and Salesforce
Multi-tenant management and role-based access control through a single dashboard for centralized oversight
Independent protection that broadens customer coverage and opens new recurring service potential

Learning from MSPs Around the World
The Arcserve MSP story is informed by direct partner conversations. Arcserve recently ran a series of MSP roadshows and educational events worldwide, meeting with partners to hear how partner goals for data resilience, service delivery, and growth are changing.

Partners described the same pressures everywhere: more customer environments to cover with the same technicians, overlapping tools that raise cost and complexity, rising customer and insurer expectations, and margin that thins as licensing and administration stack up. Recurring themes were consistent:

Simpler operations
Centralized oversight
Confidence that recovery will work
Stronger ransomware defenses
Protection for SaaS application data
Flexible packaging and solutions that support profitable recurring services

MSP Summit 2026 is the next step in that listening cycle, a place to demonstrate new capabilities, gather direct feedback, and continue shaping product and program investment around partner needs.

Proof in Practice: How MSPs Deliver Resilience with Arcserve
More customer data protected with the teams already in place, faster recovery when incidents hit, and resilience that becomes dependable recurring revenue: these are the outcomes MSPs achieve with Arcserve.

Netprotocol, SaaS data protection at scale: The UK MSP standardized on Arcserve SaaS Backup to protect Microsoft 365 across Exchange Online, SharePoint, and OneDrive for more than 100 clients, with a strong concentration in the legal sector. Setup typically completes in five to ten minutes, and snapshot-based recovery and investigation workflows support the audit-ready, time-critical needs of legal customers
Integreon, measurable availability gains: The managed services leader deployed Arcserve Replication and High Availability across Windows and Microsoft SQL Server infrastructure and, within six months, reached 99.9% uptime, a 10x reduction in recovery time, and 60% fewer unplanned outages
Prime ICT, ransomware recovery over the holidays: Using Arcserve ShadowProtect and Arcserve ImageManager with immutable cloud storage, the MSP recovered a customer from a Christmas Eve ransomware attack, restoring 6TB of data and five servers with zero data loss and no need to pay a £200,000 ransom demand
Contedia, rapid recovery through standardization: The MSP standardized on Arcserve ShadowProtect, Arcserve ImageManager, and Arcserve SaaS Backup for manufacturing and construction clients. When ransomware struck one customer, the pre-configured architecture had the customer operational again within 15 minutes and both affected servers fully restored in under 60 minutes
