Introducing Barracuda’s New Application Plans for Effortless Website, Application, and API Security
Barracuda, a trusted partner and leading provider of cloud-first security solutions, today introduced new Application Protection plans to make it easy for customers to protect websites, applications, and APIs with comprehensive enterprise-grade protection. The new plans combine Machine Learning (ML)-powered web application, API, DDoS and bot protection with Zero Trust security to help prevent today’s most complex threats.
As the threat landscape in Asia-Pacific and the rest of the world continues to evolve at a rapid pace, businesses need a solution that delivers Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) to applications no matter where they reside – including on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud application deployments. The new Application Protection plans from Barracuda are designed so customers can choose the security capabilities they need, input the number of applications, and get started.
According to Forrester: “While web application firewalls (WAFs) remain a popular tool to protect web applications, customers today are looking to protect a wider range of applications across a wider range of deployment environments with fewer people.”1.
Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service enables comprehensive application security for web applications and APIs of any size. Applications can be quickly onboarded and secured with the three-step onboarding wizard. WAF-as-a-Service features deep visibility to identify attacks and traffic trends. Among these are visualizations for client-side scripts on their web applications —something that few admins have visibility into and are important for protecting against website supply chain attacks. ML-powered capabilities like the Auto Configuration Engine and shadow API Discovery enable admins to reduce their unknown attack surfaces.
“With these new plans we are making it easier for our channel partners in Asia and the rest of the world to help their customers secure internal and third-party applications,” said Philippe Cazaubon, Director, Southeast Asia, Barracuda.
“Web and API-based applications are core to a business’ digital journey. However, our own internal research shows that for many businesses in Southeast Asia and across the globe, the prospect of effectively securing apps against an ever-evolving range of cyberthreats can appear complex and resource-intensive. It doesn’t need to be either of those things. These new plans will enable channel partners to offer advanced yet easy to deploy and manage service-based application security. Partners will be able to quickly onboard and manage new customers and support them in meeting compliance and cyber-insurance requirements.”
“The new plans make it easy for customers to choose the security capabilities they need and get started with Barracuda Application Protection,” said Tim Jefferson, Barracuda SVP, Engineering & Product Management, Data, Network, and Application Protection. “The new plans offer a unique combination of ML-powered vulnerability, API, DDoS, and bot protection with Zero Trust security to help customers in combating today’s most challenging threats.”
New Application Protection plans will be available to customers and partners on April 24, 2023. Get more information here: https://www.barracuda.com/products/application-protection/plans
