Migrate quickly and easily.
Migrating from an on-premises email security gateway is simple. Customers who migrate to cloud Email Gateway Defense are typically up-and running in under an hour, with no lapse in security. Easily transfer your existing configurations to your new cloud-hosted deployment and leverage our award-winning support team to assist at any time.
Block advanced threats.
Advanced, zero-day threats try to evade email filters by presenting a previously unknown profile. Barracuda’s cloud Email Gateway Defense leverages Barracuda Advanced Threat Protection, a cloud-based service that defends against zero-day ransomware and other advanced threats.
Barracuda Advanced Threat Protection uses multiple, layered analytic engines in the cloud, including behavioral analytics, static analysis, and CPU-emulation sandboxing to detect unknown and evasive threats. It is fast and efficient, and has no impact on your network performance.
Stay connected and productive during downtime.
In the event of a mail server outage or loss of connectivity, Barracuda’s email continuity ensures that email operations continue by failing over to our cloud-based email service. An emergency mailbox lets users continue to send and receive emails, staying productive until your primary servers are back online.
Stop spear phishing attacks with AI-driven defenses.
At Barracuda we invested in the development of artificial intelligence technology to help our customers address growing threats of targeted phishing attacks. Most spear phishing attacks come from high reputation senders and don’t contain any malicious payload in the form of links or attachments. AI engines that are built into cloud email security can help block targeted email threats that evade traditional security and can alert administrators of fraudulent account login attempts. By migrating your email security to the cloud, you can lay-on this advanced protection for ultimate security of your users.
Still on-prem? Let cloud-hosted Email Gateway Defense accelerate your migration.
Even if you’re still using an on-premises email server, you’re probably at least in the early stages of planning to migrate to Microsoft 365 for improved flexibility, productivity, and efficiency. But if you’re like many of your peers, concerns about security might be slowing down your process as you educate yourself about specific requirements and options for securing cloud deployments.
By switching to cloud Email Gateway Defense now, you’ll get optimal security for your existing email service, and at the same time you’ll enable yourself to move full-speed ahead with plans for cloud migration, knowing that you already have cloud-optimized security and data protection locked in.
