Introducing the BarracudaONE™ AI-Powered Cybersecurity Platform
New platform will fill a major channel need. A global survey found that security tool sprawl drives cyber risk and overwhelms IT Teams, with 65% of professionals managing too many tools.
Key quote from the press release:
“This research serves as a stark wake-up call for organizations still relying on disconnected, siloed security tools. Managing a patchwork of solutions drives up costs and complexity while creating blind spots that attackers are quick to exploit. Security teams simply cannot afford to waste time switching between systems while critical threats go undetected. The path forward is clear: consolidation and integration are essential for cyber resilience. That is exactly why we built BarracudaONE – to improve security operations, reduce risk and enable teams to secure their environments faster and more effectively. We are cutting through the complexity, closing critical gaps and empowering organizations with the confidence and control they need to stay ahead of evolving threats.” — Neal Bradbury, chief product officer, Barracuda
