Don’t fall victim to ransomware.
The FBI has issued multiple alerts on the dangers of ransomware. Barracuda secures state and local governments and other public agencies against these attacks with a multilayered defense. Our global threat intelligence network protects Barracuda customers in real time from hacking gangs and evolving threats.
 Secure user credentials from email attacks.

Secure user credentials from email attacks.

Phishing and social engineering attacks are designed to steal user credentials by tricking a recipient into logging into a service that steals the username and password. These credentials are then used to access the victim’s email, network, applications, and other resources. Malicious email and compromised credentials are at the heart of most ransomware attacks, including those in Delaware County and the City of Stuart.

Barracuda Email Protection combines gateway defense with AI-enabled inbox protection to protect against all email threat types, including spear phishing and sophisticated impersonation attacks. This layered approach is the industry’s most comprehensive protection against all 13 email threat types.

Protect your web applications.

Protect your web applications.

Online services and user login forms are always under attack. Malicious botnets scan web applications for vulnerabilities and exploits. Criminals use these botnets to break into a system, steal sensitive data, and launch a ransomware attack that takes multiple systems offline. And this can all be done through poorly secured web applications that were found by a bot.

Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service defends your entire application attack surface, including application programming interfaces (APIs ) and mobile apps. Barracuda Advanced Bot Protection uses machine learning to identify and block malicious bots while allowing legitimate traffic to use your applications as intended.

Enable secure access to your applications.

Enable secure access to your applications.

The increase in software-as-a-service, specialized applications, and remote work locations has created a sprawl of credential sets and virtual private network (VPN) connections. Users need simple and reliable access to their workflows, without the inconvenience and delay of multiple logins or location-based requirements. These conditions create the perfect environment for poorly-secured connections and careless password management. 

Barracuda CloudGen Access centralizes security and access policies on all apps and devices, without the need for VPN or RDP connections. This Zero Trust Network Access solution ensures that users and devices access only the applications that are explicitly assigned to them. Streamlined provisioning makes it easy to onboard teams and deploy global policies that are enforced on all apps and devices, regardless of infrastructure and network.

Protect your data with secure backup.

Protect your data with secure backup.

Threat actors know that victims are more likely to pay a ransom if there is no other option to recover data. This is why some ransomware attacks are designed to locate and destroy data backups at the beginning of the attack. Backups have to be protected from ransomware, and there should be a simple restoration process to avoid excessive downtime and other costs.

Barracuda Backup helps protect your on-premises data with anti-ransomware features such as offsite vaulting to secure cloud storage and a hardened Linux platform that prevents the execution of ransomware. Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup offers comprehensive backups and granular restore capabilities for your Microsoft 365 data. Both solutions provide immutable backups, air gap protection, and many other security features. It is easy to test and practice large and small-scale recovery procedures.
