Enterprise networks grow larger and more complex every day - and more critical to key business operations. Barracuda CloudGen Firewall F-Series Vx is an essential tool to optimize the performance, security, and availability of today's dispersed enterprise WANs.
- Advanced Threat Detection
While traditional solutions usually detect network threats after they have breached the network, by sending log notifications to the administrator, the Barracuda Advanced Threat Detection (ATD) implements full system emulation, which provides deep visibility into malware behavior. Files are checked against a cryptographic hash database that is constantly updated. In case the file is unknown, it is emulated in a virtual sandbox where malicious behavior can be discovered.
The Barracuda ATD offers Administrators granular, file-type-based control including automatic quarantine and blacklisting features to maintain the highest level of protection for an organization's network.
The Barracuda Advanced Threat Detection is an optional subscription.
- Application Control 2.0
The Barracuda CloudGen Firewall provides a powerful and extremely reliable detection and classification of more than 1,200 applications and sub-applications by combining Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and behavioral traffic analysis – no matter if the protocols are using advanced obfuscation, port hopping techniques, or encryption. It allows the creation of dynamic application policies and facilitates establishing and enforcing acceptable access and use policies for users and groups by application, application category, location, and time of day. Administrators can now:
- Block unwanted applications for certain users or groups
- Control and throttle acceptable traffic
- Preserve bandwidth and speed-up business-critical applications to ensure business continuity
- Enable or disable specific application sub-functions (e.g., Facebook Chat, YouTube Postings, or MSN file transfers)
- Intercept SSL-encrypted application traffic
The Barracuda CloudGen Firewall features advanced application-based routing path selection and Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities. These provide additional business value in addition to security by significantly improving network quality and availability, as well as reducing direct line cost due to bandwidth saved.
For rich reporting and drill-down capabilities, the Barracuda CloudGen Firewall comes with real-time and historical application visibility that shows application traffic on the corporate network, thus providing a basis for deciding which connections should be given bandwidth prioritization, crucial for QoS optimization for business-critical applications. Furthermore, it allows adjusting and refining the corporate application use policies.
- Deep Application Context
The deep application context analysis allows for deeper inspection of the application data stream by continually evaluating the actual intention of applications and the respective users. By this means administrators can gain detailed insight into what a specific application was used for or if a user was trying to circumvent the corporate application usage policy.
- Personalized Application Control
On top of the 1,400+ applications that are delivered out of the box and constantly updated, the Barracuda CloudGen Firewall provides a way to easily create user-defined application definitions for best-in-class application control customized and tailored to an organization's specific needs.
- User Identity Awareness
Different network users may need different bandwidth-use rules. Most often, access to certain network resources is limited to certain users or user groups. Preferential allocation of more bandwidth to certain users or user groups and a limitation of available bandwidth for others is a common requirement. It requires the network device to know what user an IP actually belongs to. Barracuda CloudGen Firewalls are fully user-identity aware by linking a user to one or several IP addresses. Any role assignments that result from identity and device posture checks communicated to the firewall by our health agents can be used within the firewall to facilitate role-based access control (RBAC). Barracuda CloudGen Firewalls support authentication of users and enforcement of user-aware firewall rules, web filter settings, and Application Control 2.0 using Active Directory, NTLM, MS CHAP, RADIUS, RSA SecurID, LDAP/LDAPS, TACACS+, as well as authentication with x.509 certificates.
- Reporting
The Barracuda NG Report Creator is a free tool that allows administrators to collect and consolidate traffic and application usage statistics from multiple Barracuda CloudGen Firewall units and to create easy-to-read reports in pdf format. Report tasks can be scheduled at various times during the day or week and distributed automatically via email. Besides predefined out-of-the-box reports such as Top Applications, Top Blocked URL Categories and Websites, Top Users by Bandwidth, as well as activity reports for specific users, the reporting engine provides customizable granular reports on user activity, activities during last day/week/month, etc.
For auditing reasons IP addresses can be anonymized.
- Intrusion Detection and Prevention
The Barracuda CloudGen Firewall Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDS/IPS) strongly enhances network security by providing complete and comprehensive real-time network protection against a broad range of network threats, vulnerabilities, exploits, and exposures in operating systems, applications, and databases preventing network attacks such as:
- SQL injections and arbitrary code executions
- Access control attempts and privilege escalations
- Cross-Site Scripting and buffer overflows
- Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks
- Directory traversal and probing and scanning attempts
- Backdoor attacks, Trojans, rootkits, viruses, worms, and spyware
By providing advanced attacks and threat protection features such as stream segmentation and packet anomaly protection, TCP split handshake protection, IP and RPC defragmentation, FTP evasion protection, as well as URL and HTML decoding, the Barracuda CloudGen Firewall is able to identify and block advanced evasion attempts and obfuscation techniques that are used by attackers to circumvent and trick traditional intrusion prevention systems.
As part of the Barracuda Energize Updates subscription, automatic signature updates are delivered on a regular schedule or on an emergency basis to ensure that the Barracuda CloudGen Firewall is constantly up-to-date. If the firewall unit is centrally managed, the pattern updates are conveniently distributed by the Barracuda NextGen Control Center.
