Barracuda Networks rolls out Barracuda Assistant

Barracuda Networks has launched Barracuda Assistant, powered by Barracuda AI.

Integrated into the BarracudaONE cybersecurity platform, Barracuda Assistant aims to simplify the complexity of security operations for customers and managed service providers (MSPs).

It allows users to navigate threats, troubleshoot issues and access actionable insights – such as deployment metrics and configuration recommendations – all from a single interface.

The assistant accelerates threat response by reducing investigation time, cutting costly errors and streamlining workflows. It eliminates disruptive context switching, allowing security teams to transition between vulnerability assessments, incident reviews and more. 

Integrated with Barracuda’s global threat intelligence network, Barracuda Assistant leverages a continuous stream of real-time insights to ensure every recommendation, alert and response reflects the latest threat patterns, attack vectors and proven best practices. 

“Barracuda Assistant empowers users of all skill levels to investigate threats quickly and confidently, even in the face of complex attacks," said Brian Downey, vice president of product management at Barracuda.

"We’re helping organisations close critical skills gaps, reduce human error and simplify security workflows that have traditionally been time-consuming and fragmented. This innovation gives businesses the tools they need to strengthen resilience, accelerate response and stay ahead of an ever-evolving threat landscape.”

Barracuda Assistant is now available within BarracudaONE, where customers and channel partners can manage threat response alongside solutions, accounts, licenses, and more. It will also soon be available through Barracuda XDR, Barracuda SecureEdge and the support portal.
