Barracuda Enhances Cyber Resilience with Platform Updates

In a bid to bolster its position in the cybersecurity sector, Barracula Networks has unveiled significant upgrades to its flagship BarracudaONE platform and its partner success program.

According to CEO Rohit Ghai, the current threat landscape is witnessing “an unprecedented pace” of identity-based attacks and the introduction of a new layer of risk courtesy of generative AI.

Enhancements to the BarracudaONE Platform

The enhancements to the BarracudaONE platform focus on several key areas.

Security features specifically designed for Google Workspace users have been introduced. The new protections neutralize phishing attempts, account takeovers, and other attacks by expanding impersonation detection and automating incident responses for Google Workspace.
Barracuda has launched SecureEdge Access, a cloud-delivered secure service edge solution that combines secure internet access, zero-trust application access, firewall-as-a-service, and visibility and policy controls for generative AI usage.
AI Security has been introduced, providing safe and compliant oversight of generative AI usage. This feature offers visibility into shadow AI activity, risk scoring, and policy enforcement to block or redirect non-compliant use.

Modernizing the Global Partner Success Program

In addition to these platform enhancements, Barracuda has modernized its global Partner Success Program.

The revamped program now supports various routes to market, making it easier for partners to grow with BarracudaONE.
Unified tiering extends benefits and incentives to all partners, while a set of foundational benefits is available to all, with new “boost benefits” tailored to maximize value based on a partner’s chosen route to market.
A refreshed rebate structure drives predictable profitability, and an overhauled certification curriculum and the new Barracuda Mastery Program deepen technical expertise and sharpen service differentiation.
New Partner Success teams and high-value support plans are rolling out in the coming months to further enhance partner engagement and accelerate customer outcomes.
The AI-powered partner portal delivers an integrated experience for all partner types, featuring guided onboarding, automated deal registration, data-driven dashboards, personalized learning paths, simplified MDF tracking, and streamlined access to co-brandable assets and enablement resources.
