Barracuda Networks Inc. has announced that its NextGen Firewall is now available for customers using Google Cloud Platform. Barracuda NextGen Firewall was developed for highly distributed networks with the advanced security and management capabilities that are required for cloud and hybrid environments. Directly available on AWS Marketplace, Microsoft Azure, and now Google Cloud Platform, Barracuda NextGen Firewall boasts flexible remote access, application visibility, and granular security policy management to customers looking to securely leverage cloud platforms.
According to the company, traditional next-generation firewalls are designed to be deployed at the gateway in backhauled network environments, which is not sufficient for today’s cloud and hybrid environments. Barracuda NextGen Firewall was designed for the cloud era, with features that enable direct access to cloud applications in dispersed networks where quality of service, network reliability, and secure connectivity are required at every location.
“The cloud brings about many benefits to organizations looking to efficiently scale their workloads and applications, and Google is without a doubt a key driver in this trend. We are excited to bring the Barracuda NextGen Firewall to Google Cloud Platform customers, helping them maximize their cloud investments securely and affordably,”†says Nicole Napiltonia, vice president, Alliances at Barracuda.
