Barracuda Firewall Insights is an advanced security analytics platform that ingests, aggregates, and analyzes data automatically from any CloudGen Firewall deployed across your organizational network, including public-cloud deployments. Barracuda’s analytics solution provides actionable insights for the entire WAN, including dynamic availability information on SD-WAN connections, transport data, security, and web- and network-traffic details.
Overview:
Actionable information for application performance, security, and compliance across the extended WAN
Consolidation of security, application flow, and connectivity information from hundreds or even thousands of firewalls on the extended wide area network – regardless of whether they are hardware, virtual, or cross-cloud-based deployments.
Information is key
Staying secure and seamlessly connected requires you to have up-todate data to be able to continuously assess the effectiveness of your security measures and WAN performance. The vast amount of data coming from different origins and in different formats often needs manual processing, an approach that is both error prone and costly. If information retrieval and processing of raw data is not automated, auditing and reporting requirements will represent an enormous yet inevitable burden. Barracuda Firewall Insights automates these challenging tasks.
Central reporting instance
Firewall Insights is an advanced reporting and analysis solution that gathers, consolidates, and analyzes data fully automatically from any CloudGen Firewall deployed across your organizational network, including public cloud deployments. Barracuda’s reporting solution provides status overviews for the entire WAN, including details and availability information on SD-WAN connections, transport details, security, and web- and network-traffic details. More than one hundred predefined reports, including summary reports, are available for areas like safety and liability, network activity, web activity, security, and productivity. All reports are customizable for individual timeframes and can include all or just a subset of the deployed firewalls. This enables businesses to provide policy-compliant access to information to all management levels within a secure and trusted environment.
Advanced report definition, automatic report generation, and reliable delivery
