Brentford Football Club has entered into a new partnership with Acronis to become the Premier League club’s official cybersecurity partner. 

Acronis, a Switzerland-based cybersecurity and data protection firm, will implement its solutions across Brentford FC to better safeguard its systems from potential attacks. 

The implementation of the Littlefish solution will also help to protect the club’s digital infrastructure, along with the introduction of other Acronis programmes. 

Mike Morris, Brentford FC Technology Director, said: “Maintaining the highest standards of data protection and cybersecurity is essential for modern football operations, both on and off the pitch. 

“This partnership with Acronis and Littlefish gives those of us working behind the scenes peace of mind that our data is securely backed up and protected.” 

Managed through a single console, Acronis seeks to offer reliable and cost-effective security and backup solutions to meet the digital needs of organisations, including globally renowned sports teams. 

Acronis will also become Brentford’s cyberfit delivery partner, powered by Littlefish. This will see the cybersecurity firm provide the club access to the Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, Advanced Backup, Advanced Management, and Advanced Security. 

Ronan McCurtin, RVP EMEA at Acronis, said: “We are happy to partner with Brentford, alongside Littlefish. This latest expansion of our #TeamUp programme underscores the critical role cybersecurity plays in modern sports and highlights our commitment to drive technological innovation and robust security. 

“Littlefish is an exceptional company to partner with and will provide Brentford with Acronis’ natively integrated cybersecurity solutions, protecting their digital operations and ensuring their digital infrastructure remains secure and efficient.”
