Barracuda Networks, Inc., a
leading cybersecurity company providing complete protection against complex
threats for all sized businesses, today announced the launch of Barracuda Managed Vulnerability Security. This fully
managed service, powered by Barracuda’s global Security Operations Center
(SOC), extends the BarracudaONE platform to help organizations
proactively identify, assess and prioritize vulnerabilities. This enables
them to reduce risk and strengthen their security resilience.
"By
proactively identifying vulnerabilities, we can better predict the likelihood
of an attack, giving both Barracuda and our customers a decisive edge to stop
threats before they’re exploited and reduce cyber risk,” said Adam Khan, vice
president of global security operations at Barracuda. “Barracuda Managed
Vulnerability Security delivers deep visibility into risks across
environments – without the burden of managing additional tools or hiring
hard-to-find and retain security operations specialists. With expert guidance
and smart prioritization, it streamlines remediation and transforms how organizations
manage vulnerabilities and defend against today’s sophisticated attacks.”
Barracuda Managed
Vulnerability Security provides expert-led vulnerability scanning,
analysis, and contextual reporting across organizations’ networks and
cloud infrastructure. The service uncovers vulnerabilities across a broad range
of hardware and software, including endpoints, servers, IoT devices, firewalls,
and other network-connected systems, regardless of whether those
vulnerabilities are associated with known exploits.
Organizations
receive detailed, actionable reports, including an audit summary and
prioritized remediation plan. These insights help organizations clearly
understand their risk exposure and make informed decisions aligned with both
their security objectives and compliance requirements. Regular vulnerability
scans play a critical role in helping organizations meet regulatory guidelines
such as the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), Network Information
Security 2 (NIS2), General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Payment Card Industry Data Security
Standard (PCI DSS), and others by supporting ongoing risk assessment,
mitigation and audit readiness.
Availability
Barracuda Managed
Vulnerability Security is now available to both new and existing customers
through Barracuda’s global network of resellers and Managed
Service Providers.
The service can be deployed on its own or seamlessly integrated with Barracuda
Managed XDR, a 24/7/365 threat detection and response offering that
leverages advanced AI analytics and threat intelligence to prevent breaches.
When combined, customers gain a unified, fully managed security experience that
streamlines vendor management, accelerates vulnerability and threat
detection and remediation, and enhances operational efficiency.
What Partners Say
“The new Barracuda
Managed Vulnerability Security offers an easy and effective way to identify
vulnerabilities across our customers’ environments,” said Dominik Meier, chief
technology officer at Vistasys
AG. “All we need to do is register the appliances for vulnerability
scanning, and Barracuda’s SOC team handles the rest. They perform the scanning
and deliver a clear report with actionable recommendations. This not only
strengthens our customers’ security but also saves us valuable time and
internal resources.”
“As an MSP, we
tested Barracuda Managed Vulnerability Security with one of our largest
critical infrastructure clients that had struggled with other tools, and the
results were immediate and impressive,” said Alberto Ramos-Izquierdo, chief
executive officer at RIZQ.
“Barracuda uncovered serious vulnerabilities in areas the client thought were
secure and delivered a clear, prioritized remediation list that was easy to act
on. This isn’t just another scanner – it’s a strategic, expert-driven solution
that aligns with our risk and compliance programs. Where other tools overwhelm
with hundreds of pages of complex analysis, Barracuda simplifies the process
with a focused top 25 list that drives action. It’s now a core part of our
managed security services, and we’re rolling it out across our customer base
because true cyber resilience requires ongoing visibility, not reactive
guesswork.”
