The new integration, which is available at no additional charge to users of both products, lets organizations apply policy-based access controls to mobile devices automatically in response to real-time mobile threat data.

The deal, which includes a multi-year agreement by Barracuda to resell several Avast Business security solutions, immediately turns Barracuda into a player in the rapidly evolving market for managed services and managed security software.
