Anti-Spam Services Hardware

The Barracuda spam and antivirus firewall is an integrated hardware and software solution for complete protection of your email server. It provides a powerful, easy to use, and affordable solution to eliminating spam and viruses from your organisation by providing the following protection:

• Anti-Spam  • Anti-Virus  • Anti-Spoofing  • Anti-phishing  • Anti-Spyware  • Denial of Service

The Barracuda spam and virus firewall is compatible with all email servers and can fit into any corporate or small business enviroment. It is used by small organisations with as few as 10 employees and large organisations with as many as 200,000 employees. A single Barracuda spam and virus firewall handles up to 100,000 active email users. Mulitple units can be clustered together for even greater capacity and higher availability.

The Barracuda spam and virus firewall protects your email server with 12 defense layers:

• Network denial of service protection  • IP Reputation Analysis • Virus scanning • Rate control • Sender Authentication • Recipient Verification • Policy (user specified rules) • Spam fingerprint check • Intent analysis • Image analysis • Bayesian analysis • Rule based scoring

The Barracuda spam and virus firewall architecture optimizes the processing of each email to maximize performance and process millions of messages per day. Unlike software solutions, Barracuda reduces the load placed on the email server by offloading both spam and virus filtering.

In addition, all Barracuda spam and virus firewall models include essential outbound filtering techniques including attachment scanning, virus filtering, rate controls and encryption. These features help organisations to ensure all out going email is legitimate and virus free.
