Barracuda Networks, a trusted partner and cloud-first security solutions provider, announced increased efficacy with its Email Protection platform and additional AI innovation for improved defense against emerging threats.

According to Barracuda research based on phishing email detections (January-April 2024) using Microsoft 365 native security without a complementary cloud-native API-based email security solution has a miss rate of 47 percent. The Microsoft miss rate is higher for more advanced email attacks: Microsoft business email compromise detection has a 70 percent miss rate, and conversation hijacking attacks are missed at a rate of 87 percent.

Barracuda’s Email Protection capabilities complement Microsoft 365 native security to deliver defense-in-depth and block sophisticated email attacks.

“At Barracuda, we are committed to helping customers with the best defenses for complex and evolving threats,” said Barracuda CPO, Neal Bradbury. “We’ve been investing in AI since 2017, and this enables us to block millions of additional threats every day. Our email protection solutions support both managed service providers and end-user customers, and we continue to innovate to ensure customers are equipped to combat threats such as business email compromise with unparalleled efficacy.”

Barracuda Email Protection harnesses AI models, continuously releasing new classifiers to prevent emerging and novel threats. Based on Barracuda’s analysis, Barracuda AI-enabled solutions reportedly block 99.2 percent of targeted phishing attacks without necessitating manual configuration. This helps to conserve time and IT resources for customers and MSPs.

Barracuda currently serves tens of thousands of email security customers worldwide, with over eight million Microsoft Office 365 mailboxes monitored and protected by Barracuda Impersonation Protection, and an additional million mailboxes protected by Barracuda MSPs.

Core capabilities include ML classifiers to enhance detection; real-time reporting capabilities for actionable threat intelligence; an upgraded policy engine, custom classifiers using regular expressions and a redesigned redaction user interface.
