Industrial Security

Edge computing on the CloudGen firewall

With the new edge computing feature, container-based applications from third-party providers can be operated directly on the firewall. This expands the range of applications to include components such as anomaly detection, remote access or protocol conversions. Processing these applications directly at the source not only increases efficiency, but also reduces hardware and administration costs.

SecureEdge Connector: Secure connection of distributed IIoT infrastructures

Another highlight is the extension of the SecureEdge platform with the Barracuda Connector. This lightweight software agent enables secure, routing-based integration of distributed infrastructure components, regardless of whether they are located in the cloud, at the edge or as distributed IIoT components. This facilitates the implementation of Zero Trust and provides secure access for distributed networks and locations.

Advantages for your company

• Cost savings: The direct processing of applications on the firewall and the secure connection of distributed systems can reduce hardware and administration costs.

• Increased efficiency: The new features enable more efficient data processing and administration, especially in IIoT and OT environments.

• Increased security: Seamless integration and the use of Zero Trust principles significantly improve the security of your infrastructure.

Barracuda is setting a milestone in industrial security with the new features of the CloudGen Firewall and the SecureEdge platform. Companies benefit from innovative solutions that have been specially developed to meet the challenges of modern IIoT and OT environments. Take the opportunity to find out more about these innovations and gain practical insights during the webinar on 25 February 2025 at 10:00 am.
