Arcserve 2025 Year in Review: AI-Powered Data Resilience and Immutable Storage for Stronger Cyber Defense

Written by Alina Bezkrovna | December 12, 2025

As cyber threats continue to plague the mid-market and SMB IT landscape, Arcserve has spent 2025 delivering innovations that help organizations stay ahead and defeat these threats. This year, Arcserve introduced powerful new capabilities designed to strengthen data resilience, simplify backup processes, and protect against ransomware—leveraging AI and immutable storage technologies. 

AI-Driven Ransomware Detection 

Arcserve launched its first wave of AI-enabled features to help IT teams quickly detect and respond to ransomware. Built directly into Arcserve UDP workflows, AI-driven anomaly detection identifies suspicious activity—such as bulk file deletions, renaming, or encryption—within your backup recovery points. This advanced detection layer helps uncover 20–40% more malicious activity than traditional signature-based tools.

Immutable Backup Storage for Maximum Protection 

Arcserve Cyber Resilient Storage ensures your data remains unchangeable and recoverable, even in the face of ransomware attacks. Integrated directly into the Arcserve UDP interface, this solution offers simple, affordable options for immutable storage—on-premises or in the cloud—while meeting compliance requirements and safeguarding sensitive information with advanced encryption. 

Organizations adopting Cyber Resilience Storage are seeing: 

  • Authority control - immutable data is locked to unauthorized modifications 
  • Compliance alignment with a multi-level security architecture maintaining a barrier between threats and data 
  • Flexibility to host data in a choice of global cloud data center locations or on-premises
