What information is sent to Acronis during boot backup?

Thread needs solution

What information does Acronis True Image bootable ISO send to Acronis? It connects to the internet during boot and because it happens during boot, it uses only my router network settings, bypassing all Windows OS-based VPN protocols...

The only reasons I can think of for why any Acronis boot media might connect to the internet would be:

  1. If the ISO is for ATI install media then for the purpose of checking for later versions of the main application, as happens when doing a normal install of ATI.
     
  2. For the purpose of searching for available backup files on the local network drives (along with those stored on local drives).

Both of the above can be avoided by disconnecting your computer from any network when using the media.
