Announces ActiveImage Protector Update with Proxmox Support"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>January 13, 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WILDOMAR, Calif. \u2014 January 13, 2026 \u2014 Actiphy Inc., a global provider of backup, disaster recovery, and virtualization software, today announced the release of a new version of ActiveImage Protector that adds support for the open-source Proxmox virtualization platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent years, changes to VMware\u2019s licensing model\u2014including the transition to subscription-based licensing, price increases, and product restructuring\u2014have significantly increased infrastructure costs for many organizations. As a result, enterprises are increasingly evaluating alternative virtualization platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Proxmox has gained momentum for its low licensing costs, unified management of virtual machines (KVM) and containers (LXC), and vendor-independent architecture that helps organizations avoid lock-in. With the addition of Proxmox support, ActiveImage Protector further expands its role as a comprehensive multi-hypervisor backup solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Proxmox offers its own open-source backup solution, Proxmox Backup Server, many enterprises require the stability, professional support, and centralized management capabilities of a commercial backup product\u2014particularly in business-critical environments where uptime and recovery time objectives are essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizations with mixed virtualization setups\u2014like VMware, Hyper-V, and Proxmox\u2014often encounter increased complexity in managing various backup solutions. By supporting Proxmox, ActiveImage Protector facilitates centralized backup and recovery across diverse environments, helping to reduce operational complexity and decrease the chance of human error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>New Features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"list_dot_small mb-3\"><li><strong>Proxmox Virtualization Support<\/strong>: Agentless backup (HyperBack\u2122) and recovery to a virtual environment (HyperRecovery\u2122) are now available directly on the Proxmox platform.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enhanced Virtual Conversion for KVM<\/strong>: Expanded Virtual Conversion and new Virtualization Adapter features enable migration to KVM environments, including Virtual-to-Cloud (V2C) recovery from Windows systems to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seamless Restore Across Agentless and Agent-Based Environments<\/strong>: Agentless backup images of virtual machines can be restored to standalone virtual machines or physical systems without a hypervisor, enabling smooth restores across both agentless and agent-based deployments.<\/li><li><strong>Improved RescueBoot\u2122 Usability<\/strong>: RescueBoot\u2122, which allows systems to boot directly from an internal disk without external media, can now be created and launched directly from the Utilities menu\u2014significantly improving usability.<\/li><li><strong>Expanded KVM Support for Standby and Virtualization<\/strong>: HyperStandby\u2122 (virtual standby from backup images), vStandby\u2122 (virtual standby from disks), and virtualization (P2V) now support KVM environments.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><h3>Key features of ActiveImage Protector<\/h3><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"list_dot_small mb-3\"><li><strong>Comprehensive System Protection<\/strong>: Back up entire system\u2014including operating systems, configurations, applications, and data\u2014in a single image file for fast, reliable recovery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flexible Backup and Recovery<\/strong>: Supports disk, volume, file, and folder backups, including incremental backups for optimized storage efficiency.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ransomware-Resilient Backup Protection (ImageIsolate\u2122)<\/strong>: Automatically disconnects backup storage from the network after backup completion to protect against ransomware and malware attacks.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Distributed Storage and Offsite Replication <\/strong>: Secure replication to remote locations improves data availability and disaster-recovery readiness.<li>\n<li><strong>Broad Cloud Storage Support<\/strong>: Compatible with S3-compatible object storage and Microsoft Azure Storage. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Inline Data Deduplication Compression (IDDC)<\/strong>: Reduces storage consumption by eliminating duplicate data and compressing it simultaneously.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cross-Platform Consistency<\/strong>: Delivers consistent functionality across physical, virtual, and cloud environments.<\/li>\n<li><strong>System Migration and Disaster Recovery<\/strong> Supports P2V, V2V, and V2C migrations to ensure rapid recovery and business continuity.\n<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about ActiveImage Protector, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.actiphy.com\/global\/\">https:\/\/actiphy.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><h3>Trademarks<\/h3><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Copyright \u00a9 2026 Actiphy, Inc.
