Today we’re excited to share the news about our two new Barracuda Application Protection plans, which make it easy for customers to protect websites, applications, and APIs with comprehensive enterprise-grade protection.

We’re even more excited about the benefits the new Barracuda Application Protection packages will bring to customers. We got input from executives and partners to get a closer look at the top ways the packages will help businesses.

Top benefits for customers

1. Sophisticated protection

WAF-as-a-Service offers Advanced Bot Protection, API Discovery, and Active Threat Intelligence, which work together to help customers defend against today’s most sophisticated threats. ML-powered capabilities like the Auto Configuration Engine and shadow API Discovery enable admins to reduce their unknown attack surfaces.

“The new plans offer a unique combination of ML-powered vulnerability, API, DDoS, and bot protection with Zero Trust security to help customers in combating today’s most challenging threats,” said Tim Jefferson, Barracuda Networks SVP, Engineering & Product Management, Data, Network, Application Protection.

2. Flexibility

Customers need a solution that delivers Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) to applications no matter where they reside — including on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud application deployments. These new plans are designed so customers can choose the security capabilities they need, input the number of applications, and get started.

"With the new Advanced and Premium plans, customers have more options to choose from when it comes to securing their web applications and APIs,” said Kevin Feenstra, ilionx. "Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service makes it easier than ever for customers to secure applications against known or unknown attacks and to provide complete, data-driven protection."

3. Comprehensive solution that is easy to buy, deploy, and use

At Barracuda, we believe every business deserves access to cloud-enabled, enterprise-grade security solutions that are easy to buy, deploy, and use. Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service enables comprehensive application security for web applications and APIs of any size. Applications can be quickly onboarded and secured with the three-step onboarding wizard.

“Our goal for the new plans was to make it even easier for customers to get started with Barracuda Application Protection while still getting the comprehensive security they need, and I think we’ve delivered on that in a big way,” said Nitzan Miron, Vice President, Product Management, Application Protection at Barracuda.
