Secure Your Email System

Email traffic remains the single most common vector for ransomware and other threats to enter your network. Educational institutions are a prime target for these threats - especially higher education, who often have a larger number of students with higher value data - and nobody is immune to a well-crafted spear phishing attack.

Barracuda Essentials for Office 365 scans your email traffic to block malicious attachments and URLs. Outbound scanning prevents data loss, and advanced analysis spots typo-squatting and other signs of phishing.

Secure Web Applications

With the growth of cloud computing and collaborative working, web applications and portals have become a vital tool for many campuses, offering educational enrichment and flexibility for students in completing coursework and studies. However, these websites and apps that accept input from outside of your network also serve as a significant threat vector. 

Barracuda Web Application Firewall provides comprehensive, integrated security and control to protect your customers and data from sophisticated attacks. It can be deployed on-premises as an appliance, in a virtual machine environment, or in the cloud.

Secure Your Network Perimeter

Your network is supporting a growing number of 1-to-1 devices and student-owned mobile devices, and traffic to cloud and SaaS applications is increasing dramatically as mobile learning becomes the norm. This not only creates new opportunities for advanced threats, but also puts a real strain on your bandwidth, leading to costly upgrades.

Barracuda CloudGen Firewalls combine intelligent traffic management and WAN optimisation capabilities to help you reduce costs and increase overall network availability, while also using advanced capabilities to block cyber attackers and malware from accessing your network.
