“Email security was once viewed as a way to stop spam from bogging down workflows—now it is viewed as mission-critical and requires a multilayered security approach to successfully protect targeted employees, applications, and data,”†said†Ezra Hookano, VP of Channels, Barracuda.†”With this announcement we are fulfilling a strong demand from our partner community to offer a single SKU for the full stack of our email protection solutions, offering an easier way for customers to buy all the email protection they need, the simplest way possible.”
Barracuda offers customers a combination of gateway security, data protection, AI-based targeted threat protection, and user awareness training to deliver comprehensive protection against email-borne threats.
“We’ve been looking for a one-stop-shop for email security, and Barracuda’s Total Email Protection bundle makes that a reality for us,”†explained†Joseph Marquette, president and founder, Accellis Technology Group, Inc.†”Now we can easily offer our customers email security, protection powered by AI, security awareness training, and backup, all in one easy-to-understand package. This will simplify our sales process significantly, and that really sets Barracuda apart from the competition.”
A recent study commissioned by Barracuda revealed 87 percent of IT security professionals said their company had faced an email-based security threat in the past year. The study includes responses from 634 executives, individual contributors, and team managers serving in IT-security roles in the Americas, EMEA, and APAC.
