Hello Jobin,

welcome to Acronis forums!

Acronis Active Protection monitors processes running on the protected machine. When a third-party process tries to encrypt files or mine cryptocurrency, Active Protection generates an alert and performs additional actions, if those are specified by the configuration.

Active Protection is installed as Acronis Active Protection Service with Acronis Agents on PCs or Storage Nodes on local disks. It prevents unauthorized changes to the backup software's own processes, registry records, executable and configuration files, and backups located in local folders.

Thus, Acronis Active protection does not work in your case, since you access a network share (which cannot be covered by Acronis Active Protection) with your backups from a machine that is not protected by Acronis Active Protection.

Hello Maria ,

 

I understood this issue. But some times the back up file (tibx) can not delete and than when active protection is turned off, than file could be delete. I will find the explanation here https://kb.acronis.com/content/59857

Hello Jobin,

to sum up:

Q: What data storage devices are covered by Acronis Active Protection?

A: Files on internal and external disks are protected, including HDD, SSD, hybrid disks, RAID, external USB disks, USB pendrives, RDX drives (starting with Update 2) and other locally-attached storage devices. Acronis True Image 2019 can also protect network shares and NAS devices. 

Q: Does Acronis Active Protection protect computer's MBR, boot sectors and hidden partitions?

A: MBR is protected. Boot sectors and hidden partitions protection is planned for the future.

Q: Does Acronis Active Protection guard my files in remote locations?

A: Data in Acronis Cloud is protected by blocking injections into our processes that communicate with Acronis Cloud. All other kinds of Clouds are not covered by Acronis Active Protection. Protection of files stored in shared folders and NAS has been implemented in Acronis True Image 2019.

More info in Acronis Active Protection: Frequently Asked Questions

If you want to delete\move or modify Acronis backups, you can temporarily turn off Self-protection as described in the article you mentioned above  https://kb.acronis.com/content/59857

Ok. Actually i want to know how can i protect acronis backup file stored on remote location from accidentally deletion ? Is there any way to protect ?
