Advancing AI-powered defenses to meet modern email threats
- Barracuda has been recognized as a Visionary in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Email Security for the second consecutive year.
- Barracuda Email Protection delivers AI-powered, multilayered defenses with unified management and fast remediation to counter modern email threats.
Barracuda has once again been named as a Visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Email Security1 — marking the second consecutive year we’ve earned this distinction. From Barracuda’s perspective, this recognition underscores our commitment to innovation, customer success and helping organizations stay ahead of today’s rapidly evolving email threats.
Barracuda’s multilayered approach to email security
Barracuda Email Protection delivers comprehensive, multilayered defense against phishing, ransomware, business email compromise, and other attacks. Key capabilities include:
- AI-powered detection to identify and block sophisticated threats
- Automated incident response to streamline remediation and reduce IT workload
- Robust DMARC reporting to strengthen email authentication and prevent domain spoofing
- Unified platform management to minimize tool sprawl and hidden costs while maintaining strong protection
As part of the BarracudaONE cybersecurity platform, Barracuda Email Protection provides centralized visibility and seamless control across email security operations. It is easily managed through a unified dashboard. Managed service providers (MSPs) benefit from instant bulk remediation and accelerated response times, empowering them to safeguard client environments with speed and confidence.
“Email remains the number one entry point for cyberattacks, with research showing that 78% of organizations experienced an email security breach in the last 12 months,” said Neal Bradbury, Chief Product Officer at Barracuda. “Organizations need advanced, multilayered protection that can detect and stop sophisticated threats before any damage is done. This recognition reinforces our ongoing commitment to helping customers stay ahead of these evolving threats and confidently keep their email secure.”
Customer perspective
Ease of use and efficiency remain central to Barracuda’s design philosophy. As Tobye Connors, ICT Manager at Construction Sciences, shared:
“Obviously one thing that stands out about Barracuda is the extraordinary ease of use. Everything is laid out very clearly, whatever you need is very easy to find. It’s clear that Barracuda has put a lot of effort into creating an excellent user experience. Compared to other products I’ve used, the difference is night-and-day. And that’s critical given the size of our team. We’ve actually gotten smaller, there’s only three of us now, managing IT for 1,000 users. So both the ease of use and the automated features like incident response mean that we’re not wasting any time.”
