Integrate Acronis Cyber Protect

You must have the Backup and recovery integrations license pack to use this feature.

You can integrate Acronis Cyber Protect with Sophos Central so that it sends data to Sophos for analysis.

This is an API-based integration. You must get details of the Cyber Protect API (client ID, client secret, and base URL).

The key steps are as follows:

  • Get details from Cyber Protect.
  • Configure an integration in Sophos Central.

Get details from Acronis Cyber Protect

To get the Cyber Protect details you need for integration, do as follows:

  1. Log in to the Cyber Protect management portal.
  2. Click Settings > API clients > Create API client.
  3. Enter a name for the API client.
  4. Click Next.

    The API client is created with the status Active by default.

  5. Copy and save the client ID, client secret value, and base URL. You'll need to use them later in Sophos Central.

    The secret value is displayed only once. You can't recover it if you lose it. You can only reset it.

  6. Click Done.

Next, you configure an integration in Sophos Central.

Configure an integration

To integrate Cyber Protect with Sophos Central, do as follows:

  1. In Sophos Central, go to Threat Analysis Center > Integrations > Marketplace.
  2. Click Acronis - Cyber Protect.

    The Acronis - Cyber Protect page opens. You can configure integrations here and see a list of any you've already configured.

  3. In Data Ingest (Security Alerts), click Add Configuration.

    Note

    If this is the first integration you've added, we'll ask for details about your internal domains and IPs. See Provide your domain and IP details.

  4. In Integration steps, do as follows:

    1. Enter the Integration name and Integration description.
    2. Enter the Base URL, Client id, and Client secret you got from Cyber Protect.
  5. Click Save

We create the integration and it appears in your list. If its status icon shows a green tick, your data should appear in the Sophos Data Lake after validation.
