CYFAX® EXTERNAL ATTACK SURFACE MANAGEMENT Integration with Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud

Empowering MSPs with Proactive Threat Intelligence for Multi-Client Protection

Cyfax is a next-generation external cyber surveillance and digital risk protection platform designed to identify, track, and neutralize threats before they impact your organization or your clients. Built to enterprise standards but packaged for MSP delivery, Cyfax operates across the entire digital threat landscape—from the dark web and malicious infrastructure to exposed apps, cloud services, and shadow IT. This integration with Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud provides MSPs with comprehensive external threat monitoring across their entire client portfolio.

How the Integration Works

The Cyfax-Acronis integration provides MSPs with comprehensive External Attack Surface Management that goes far beyond traditional dark web monitoring. While Cyfax includes proprietary deep dark web penetration technology, it delivers a complete EASM solution featuring hyperautomated penetration testing, real-time infrastructure and application-level vulnerability scanning, and unified external threat coverage. Alerts appear directly in the Acronis Portal while simultaneously delivering real-time notifications through your preferred platforms—email, Slack, Teams, or other messaging systems.

Core Capabilities for MSPs

  1. Enterprise-Grade Dark Web Monitoring for MSP Clients: Cyfax operates one of the world's largest white hat bot networks, penetrating over 20,000 malicious forums, channels, servers, and paste bin sites. Our AI-enabled deception technology penetrates deeper than anyone, monitoring for compromised credentials, employee mentions, and attack chatter across all client portfolios. High-fidelity alerts allow MSPs to provide immediate response to emerging threats long before they hit client infrastructure.

  2. Real-Time Perimeter Scanning: Monitor Surface Web, Dark Web, and Deep Web sources for client-specific intelligence—including public-facing infrastructure, cloud services, and shadow IT.

  3. Continuous External Pen Testing: Our platform safely simulates real-world attack techniques to test exposed services and confirm exploitability, giving MSPs actionable insights—not just raw findings.

  4. Third-Party Risk Monitoring Across Client Vendor Ecosystems: Monitor clients' entire supply chains with continuously updated risk scoring delivered in an easy-to-understand scorecard approach with robust real-time alerting that scales to hundreds of suppliers at a time. Perfect for MSPs managing compliance requirements across SOC 2, HIPAA, and ISO 27001 frameworks.

  5. Automated Takedown Services for Client Brand Protection: Cyfax empowers MSPs to act on threats—not just observe them. We offer built-in support for automated takedown requests of malicious or spoofed domains, exposed data repositories, and phishing infrastructure such as Fast Flux targeting your clients. This reduces dwell time and limits client exposure.

Why MSPs Choose Cyfax?

MSPs need scalable, automated, and low-maintenance security solutions that still deliver enterprise-level results. Cyfax was designed with this reality in mind. We handle the intelligence gathering, scanning, and remediation workflows—so your team doesn't have to.

Why Cyfax Is Different?

Cyfax isn't just another scan engine or feed aggregator—it's a comprehensive External Attack Surface Management platform that goes far beyond traditional dark web monitoring. Operating one of the world's largest white hat bot networks covering 20,000+ malicious forums, channels, servers, and paste sites, Cyfax uses proprietary AI-enabled deception technology to penetrate deeper than any standard EASM solution.

In over 80% of public breaches reported via SEC 8-K filings, Cyfax surfaced pre-breach telemetry an average of eight weeks prior to the disclosed incident. This includes leaked credentials, attacker chatter, domain registrations, and malicious infrastructure setup—including sophisticated techniques like Fast Flux networks.

Unlike legacy tools that overwhelm with noise, Cyfax delivers a complete EASM solution featuring hyperautomated penetration testing, real-time infrastructure and application-level vulnerability scanning across client perimeters, and third-party risk management with easy-to-understand scorecards that scale to hundreds of suppliers. All threat data comes with pre-baked analysis and compliance mapping across OWASP, MITRE ATT&CK, and NIST 800-53 frameworks.

Purpose-built for MSPs, Cyfax reduces operational headcount burden through hyperautomation while creating multiple new revenue streams. Enterprise and MSP onboarding typically takes less than 30 minutes, with multi-tenant dashboards and granular reporting ready for immediate client delivery.
