The New Barracuda Security Suite Is Now Shipping From Wick Hill
January 2015 by Marc Jacob
Now available from Wick Hill is the Barracuda Security Suite, which allows customers to purchase and deploy proven protection across three common threat vectors – email, web browsing, and network perimeters – and independently scale these functions with a purpose-built virtualised platform.
This latest solution is a part of Barracuda’s Total Threat Protection initiative, which is aimed at providing powerful, robust protection across multiple threat vectors with simplified management. The Barracuda Security Suite integrates next-generation network and content security – including individual virtual instances of the award-winning Barracuda Firewall, Barracuda Web Filter and Barracuda Spam Firewall – on a single appliance.
Barracuda Security Suite is designed for businesses considering the replacement of their Unified Threat Management (UTM) systems, which often suffer performance degradation when all features are running simultaneously. The Barracuda Security Suite is optimised to run on a purpose-built network virtualisation hypervisor. Each of the virtual instances can operate at near-wire speeds to appliance components and feature resource partitioning to help ensure performance isolation and speed.
Award-Winning Advanced Security
The Barracuda Security Suite integrates virtual instances of Barracuda’s award-winning next-generation firewall and content security technologies and includes:
· Barracuda Firewall: Incorporates next-generation firewall capabilities – based on application visibility and user-identity awareness. Key features also include coordinated WAN optimisation, centralised management and reporting.
· Barracuda Web Filter: Enables connected businesses to benefit from new technologies and online tools to improve productivity, wasted bandwidth, and data loss. Highly granular visibility allows administrators to create effective content and access policies.
· Barracuda Spam Firewall: Provides comprehensive email security that includes spam and virus blocking, data protection, DoS prevention, email continuity, encryption, and policy management.

It includes the combination of award-winning security solutions, a common management interface, a single point of support, and affordability.
Barracuda Security Suite is designed for midsized organisations looking for next-generation security functionality in a powerful, affordable and easy-to-use platform.
