Barracuda CloudGen Firewall overview

What is Barracuda CloudGen Firewall?

Barracuda CloudGen Firewall is a next generation firewall (NGFW) designed to manage security across complex and distributed networks. The solution offers scalable centralized management alongside an advanced security analytics platform to manage secure access across the entire WAN.

Barracuda CloudGen Firewall's advanced threat protection (ATP) system checks files against a continuously-updated cryptographic hash database, and emulates unknown files in a virtual sandbox environment to uncover any malicious behaviors. Granular controls based on file types include block list and automatic quarantine functionality to maintain high-level protection. DNS Sinkholing technology block access to malicious domains to prevent botnet infections by redirecting DNS requests to malicious domains into an internal sinkhole. Barracuda CloudGen Firewall also protects against DoS and DDoS attacks, malware, and other threats.

Remote access tools allow for bring your own device (BYOD) with minimal business risk, and both client-to-site and site-to-site VPN capabilities. Real-time and historical reporting provides administrators with filterable visibility into policy violations and assists in prioritizing bandwidth for application connections.
