Barracuda Web Application Firewall is now available in the Amazon Web Services Marketplace

Barracuda Networks, Inc. says that the Barracuda Web Application Firewall is now available in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace. The Barracuda Web Application Firewall brings leading web security capabilities to customers migrating applications to the AWS cloud.

“As customers accelerate the migration of applications to cloud providers such as AWS, they often overlook application security requirements,” said Blair Hankins, VP engineering, Barracuda. “The Barracuda Web Application Firewall provides robust security functionality to address threats that happen at the application layer so customers can securely move applications on to the AWS cloud.”

“Cloud computing can help organisations of all sizes around the world to gain flexibility, reliability and scalability for their applications,” said Terry Hanold, vice president, cloud commerce, AWS. “We know that security is a top concern for our customers and we are pleased to work closely with Barracuda to bring their web application security to the AWS Marketplace to offer our customers more choices.”

Customers bringing their applications on to the AWS cloud need to ensure that they are secure from threats like SQL Injection, Application DDoS, and other attacks that target the application layer. Barracuda will now offer a security solution in the AWS Marketplace, offering strong application security for customers migrating applications on to the AWS cloud.
