Acronis publishes 2025 ESG report on emissions and AI governance

Acronis published its 2025 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report, which outlined the company’s Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) strategy and reported measurable progress across global operations in 2025. The report summarized ESG performance amid changes in cyber protection and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The document described how Acronis strengthened the foundation of trust by protecting, managing, and automating IT environments; investing in its people; equipping partners through training and enablement; increasing transparency around Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) calculations; supporting local communities; and reducing its global operational footprint.

Acronis advanced AI across products, operations, and development and adopted a formal AI Use Policy to define guardrails for responsible adoption, data protection, human oversight, and appropriate use cases. The company reported that AI features were embedded in its natively integrated platform and that more than 80% of employees used AI tools weekly; over 300 engineers used AI coding tools that generated nearly 2 million lines of code.

The report listed environmental actions and metrics for 2025, noting collaboration with an external sustainability advisor to strengthen GHG calculations. Acronis reduced total Scope 1–3 GHG emissions by 40% compared to 2024; Scope 3 declined 41% year-over-year with Category 11 comprising 82.1% of Scope 3. The company migrated more than 100 petabytes of Frankfurt data center workloads to a facility certified to ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 and matched 70% of electricity consumption with renewable energy attribute certificates.

Acronis reported that the Acronis Cyber Foundation delivered three school construction projects supporting 1,289 children and that more than 600 employees contributed 2,378 volunteer hours across 129 community projects. “This ESG report reflects our commitment to building a resilient, ethical, and sustainable organization — one that protects not only data, but also people, communities, and the environment,” said Alona Geckler, SVP of Business Operations and Chief of Staff at Acronis.

“Our 2025 ESG Report demonstrates how we embed responsible business practices into both our strategy and daily operations. By providing transparency into our performance, we create long-term value for our partners and give them confidence in our sustainable operations and business stability. We are committed to strengthening trust and contributing to a more secure digital future.” Acronis reported continued investment in AI-enabled development, focusing on secure deployment, transparency, governance oversight, and workforce upskilling.
