Barracuda to demo how businesses can securely embrace cloud at GITEX 2021

This year, Barracuda, a global provider of cloud-enabled security solutions, is returning to GITEX Technology Week with a full range of cybersecurity solutions that enable businesses to secure their mission-critical applications and data in a digitally transformed world. The company’s technology focus will be on its Cloud Application Protection solution which provides powerful application security that is easy to use and helps protect applications deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid.

Barracuda has stated that it is also set to unveil expanded incident response capabilities for its Total Email Protection offering, a suite of powerful security solutions that offer protection against a wide range of email threats.

“Middle East businesses have faced unprecedented change over the last 18 months and rapid digitalisation has left many vulnerable to cyberattacks. While the threat landscape is indeed daunting, Barracuda’s message to attendees is that robust protection is both affordable and easy to deploy. While packed with powerful features, Barracuda’s enterprise-grade security solutions offer consumer-level ease of use, enabling organisations to focus on realising their digital ambitions with confidence in the security of their digital services and assets,” said Chris Ross, SVP International Sales, Barracuda Networks.

In its latest report titled The state of application security in 2021, Barracuda found that 72% of organisations got breached through web applications. Moreover, the causes of these attacks varied, with top threats including bad bots (43%), software supply chain attacks (39%), vulnerability detection (38%) and securing APIs (37%). By leveraging Machine Learning, vulnerability scanning and remediation, and Advanced Threat Protection, Barracuda Cloud Application Protection provides active threat intelligence for powerful protection against these and other application threat vectors.

“GITEX gives us the unique opportunity to meet a large number of our customers and resellers at a single location – something that has been notably missing over the last year. The show of course represents a significant investment of budget, time and effort, and by participating, we are sending a strong message to our customers, resellers and other stakeholders about Barracuda’s deep commitment to the Middle East region,” he said. “I hope that the success of GITEX will pave the way for the return of such large-scale events and exhibitions.”
