With World Backup Day approaching, Synology Inc. has introduced its latest ActiveProtect Appliance series, designed for fast deployment and efficient data protection. Targeting mid-sized to large enterprises, this new lineup helps businesses mitigate risks of data loss, breaches, and ransomware attacks.
Synology’s Global Leadership in Data Protection

The company safeguards over 25 million workloads worldwide, ensuring business continuity and data resilience across multiple industries.
Rising Cyber Threats in the SAARC Region
With ransomware attacks in the region expected to rise by more than 50% in 2025, the demand for robust backup and recovery solutions has surged.
