A Barracuda Firewall Will Keep Viruses and Spam from Clogging Your Company Email Network

No business computer network should be without spam and virus filtering these days. With the volume of email traffic passing through any company email network in any given day, a business cannot afford to have its system clogged with viruses and spam. An essential element of your network system should be a Barracuda firewall, which can keep your network clear of spam, virus, spoofing, phishing and spyware threats and attacks.

Your Barracuda firewall blends hardware and software to employ 12 levels of security protection to keep your system free from threats and attacks. These layers include protection against denial of service, rate control, IP reputation analysis, sender and recipient authentication, virus scanning, user specified rules, spam fingerprint check, intent, image and Bayesian analysis and rule based scoring.

One of the beauties of the Barracuda firewall system is that it does not require the installation of additional software or modifications to your existing email network. Barracuda firewalls are themselves easy to install and ready to begin monitoring your system through an intuitive web interface; Barracuda also updates spam and virus definitions hourly through its security operations center, wihch operates around the clock to keep your system threat free. Updates are created and supplied to your network whenever the security center detects new spam and virus trends. You are not required to do a thing to initiate the updates; Barracuda does all the work to assure you of comprehensive, up to the minute protection from the latest spam and virus attack methods.

Your Barracuda firewall will process millions of incoming email messages daily, including offload of viruses and spam before they even hit your inbox. The anti spam algorithms and methods used by the Barracuda firewall product are the best in the business. This greatly reduces server load and the number of messages you must deal with on a daily basis. You also receive complete anti virus protection with the Barracuda triple layer blocking method. Barracuda firewalls also filter outgoing messages and their attachments for viruses, rate controls and encryption.

Barracuda is compatible with all types of email servers and adapts seamlessly to large and small business networks. One firewall can take care of 100,000 users; multiple clustered Barracuda firewalls can handle up to 200,000.
