Get a clear view of all your resources.
Many organizations are unaware of all the resources that users access. Barracuda provides a single view to easily optimize and secure access to every business application. Enhance security by identifying vulnerabilities and ensuring compliance with regulations and standards. Knowing exactly what resources exist makes it much easier to create and enforce granular access policies, improving your overall security posture.
Improve monitoring and alerting.
Enhance the detection and response to potential security threats in real-time, ensuring swift action against unauthorized access or anomalies. Continuous monitoring significantly bolsters your organization’s overall security posture, protecting sensitive data and resources from evolving cyber threats. Detailed logs and monitoring within a Zero Trust framework empower proactive threat hunting, allowing you to identify and eliminate threats before they cause harm.
Simplify your end-users' experience.
Streamline access to necessary resources, enhance productivity and user satisfaction by providing secure, yet efficient, access. Balance stringent security measures with user convenience, reducing friction and improving compliance with security protocols. Barracuda offers passwordless authentication to minimize login fatigue and improve the overall user experience.
Streamline security policy creation.
Facilitate the efficient development and implementation of robust security measures, tailored to the specific needs and architecture of an organization. This approach not only enhances security but also improves operational agility, allowing for quicker adaptation to evolving threats and business requirements. Barracuda provides a centralized platform for policy management, reducing complexity and improving policy consistency across your environment.
Reduce your attack surfaces and risk of data breaches.
Reduce the attack surface by minimizing unnecessary access and potential vulnerabilities within a network. This approach substantially lowers the risk of data breaches, safeguarding sensitive information from increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. Zero Trust works on the principle of least privilege, granting users only the access absolutely necessary to do their jobs, and utilizes micro-segmentation to enforce this principle on a granular level.
Support compliance initiatives.
Achieve compliance with global security and access policy on hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure environments. Create a clear system of records, delivering streamlined reports of system access across the organization. Manage, track, and verify the who, what, and when in one product. Adapt to evolving compliance requirements, allowing for quicker adjustments and ongoing alignment.
