Barracuda Enhances Web Application Security Portfolio with New Barracuda Vulnerability Manager for On-Premises, Cloud, and Hybrid EnvironmentsCAMPBELL, Calif., Feb. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Barracuda Networks, Inc. (NYSE: CUDA) - Highlights:
Barracuda today launched the Barracuda Vulnerability Manager, a cloud-based service that pinpoints vulnerabilities in websites and web applications quickly and easily. Barracuda Vulnerability Manager detects vulnerabilities such as those on the OWASP Top 10, including SQL injection and Cross-Site Scripting, with a simple point-and-click functionality, making it one of the easiest tools available to detect web application vulnerabilities. Barracuda Vulnerability Manager can scan websites and applications hosted on-premises, in virtual environments, and in public and private clouds, and can seamlessly integrate with the Barracuda Web Application Firewall to automatically create and apply mitigation policies to secure against the vulnerabilities it identifies. "Web applications are a leading attack vector used by hackers to infiltrate businesses, yet the cost and complexity of securing applications often leave IT professionals without an easy or cost-effective way to secure their infrastructure," explained Sanjay Ramnath, Senior Director, Security Product Management, Barracuda. "Barracuda Vulnerability Manager helps solve this problem with an easy-to-use cloud service that scans, detects, and identifies web vulnerabilities. Barracuda Vulnerability Manager, together with the Barracuda Web Application Firewall, offers business owners a web application security solution that can help them protect their organization from vulnerabilities with a few simple steps." Simplified Installation & Management Simplified, Comprehensive Detection Simplified Remediation "We've used Barracuda Vulnerability Manager to run quick scans or periodic monitoring of systems while in consultation with customers. The Barracuda Vulnerability Manager addresses all of a customer's publicly available content, including the most extensive content, saving a lot of research time because of the generic nature of many websites," said Jeroen Bakker, Security Officer and Technical Consultant, Ormer ICT, a Barracuda reseller. "We've been able to use Barracuda Vulnerability Manager to successfully detect and quickly set rules to mitigate web application vulnerabilities found on customer sites and it is a perfect complement to the industry-leading Barracuda Web Application Firewall."
