Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service

Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service is a highly flexible and easy-to-deploy cloud-based web application firewall designed to quickly provide comprehensive security against a multitude of online threats. Its user-friendly interface, featuring a 3-step deployment wizard and pre-built templates, allows organizations to safeguard their applications within minutes, whether they are traditional or modern microservices architectures. Thanks to its scalability and global availability via Azure, it can accommodate enterprise needs for high traffic and distributed applications seamlessly. The platform not only offers real-time threat detection but also protects APIs—such as REST, JSON, and GraphQL—by automatically discovering shadow and zombie APIs, helping organizations close security gaps. The platform’s core functionality is powered by AI and machine learning, which continually enhance its ability to detect sophisticated bots, including those involved in account takeover and credential stuffing attacks. Its multi-layered DDoS protection is included at no extra charge, covering layers 3 to 7, ensuring continuous availability of critical applications without additional costs. Additionally, enterprises benefit from the protection of microservices and intra-app traffic through containerized deployment modes, securing modern application architectures from lateral threats.
