Protect cloud-connected users, network workloads, and devices wherever they reside.
As you integrate public-cloud platforms and environments into your network, your firewalls must go beyond perimeter security and serve as the linchpins of your IT communications flow, ensuring reliable, cost-effective connections. Barracuda CloudGen Firewall was designed to optimize the performance, security, and availability of today's dispersed enterprise SD-WANs.
Barracuda CloudGen Firewall combines a complete security stack, powerful SD-WAN capabilities, and simple centralized management for hundreds or thousands of firewalls. Zero-touch hardware deployment and native cloud integration get you up and running quickly and easily in any environment.
Full next-generation security
Barracuda CloudGen Firewall is built to provide comprehensive, next-generation firewall protection. Firewalling, IPS, URL filtering, dual antivirus, and application control take place in the data path. Sandboxing and other resource-intensive tasks are offloaded seamlessly to the cloud. All platforms and models include the same comprehensive security feature-set.
Secure SD-WAN connectivity
In the cloud era, you need to connect branch offices with the cloud directly and securely. Connecting through a single, central gateway is costly and renders cloud based applications unresponsive. Optimized direct internet uplink selection ensures fast cloud-hosted SaaS applications. CloudGen Firewall lets you replace costly MPLS connections with up to 24 bonded broadband uplinks per SD-WAN connection for increased application performance and built-in redundancy.
Cloud automation
The big advantage of going to the cloud is greater agility and flexibility. This requires high degrees of automation. All components, including the infrastructure for security and connectivity, need to adapt to the way this works. CloudGen Firewall provides fully automated protection across multi-cloud deployments, including SD-WAN automation across multiple cloud providers, on-site and virtual.
