Advancing Cyber Resilience Across the Modern Attack Surface
BarracudaONE delivers resilience for organisations through an easy, complete, intelligent, and open ecosystem. New advancements include:
Email security for Google Workspace: Barracuda Email Protection neutralizes phishing, account takeover and other attacks with expanded impersonation protection and automated incident response for Google Workspace. Organizations benefit from consistent, compliant email security across both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, reducing risk, complexity and recovery time.
Network edge security: Barracuda SecureEdge Access introduces a cloud‑delivered, fully integrated secure service edge solution that brings together secure internet access, zero trust application access, firewall‑as‑a‑service, and visibility and policy controls for generative AI usage. This streamlined, easy to deploy offering strengthens defenses across distributed environments while reducing risk, complexity and tool sprawl.
Generative AI risk visibility: Barracuda AI Security provides safe, compliant oversight of generative AI usage. Included at no additional cost within BarracudaONE, this new capability offers visibility into shadow AI activity, risk scoring and policy enforcement to block or redirect noncompliant use. Centralized, multitenant dashboards help organizations reduce data exposure and improve AI governance.
Barracuda Partner Success Program
Barracuda has modernised its global Partner Success Program to support partners by rolling MSPs and resellers into one unified, flexible program. The new fit‑for‑purpose model supports multiple routes to market and makes it easier for partners to grow faster with BarracudaONE.

New Partner Success teams and high‑value support plans rolling out in the coming months will further strengthen partner engagement and accelerate customer outcomes.
The new AI‑powered partner portal delivers an integrated experience for all partner types with
- guided onboarding
