Barracuda Networks and Aerohive Networks announced the products which automate communication of wireless security policies between devices.
The new products are designed to reduce costs and improve efficiencies for customers. Customers can enable more advanced wireless access and security with greater user visibility in BYOD environments.
Customers also gain more granular visibility into creating better defined wireless security policies.
These products include Barracuda NG Firewall F10, F100 and F280 and Barracuda Web Filter 310 and 410, Aerohive’s AP130, AP230, Barracuda NG Firewall F10 and F100, F280 and Barracuda Web Filter 310/410.
Aerohive devices can now integrate with Barracuda Web Security Service, Barracuda Web Filter, and Barracuda NG Firewall.
Organizations bound by regulatory compliance requirements including education, healthcare, financial services, and government organizations will benefit from the integration.
Additionally, more defined security policies based on content can be created using device type, IP address information and user identity.
Based on context at the ideal enforcement point, applications are identified and prioritized or de-prioritized or blocked.
“When combined with Barracuda’s award-winning security technology, organizations have the capability to roll out advanced wireless capabilities, and support broader access and BYOD initiatives in a manner that maintains the security of the infrastructure,” said Michael Hughes, SVP, WW Sales, Barracuda.
“Many of Aerohive’s customers already are using Barracuda in tandem with Aerohive products,” said Bill Hoppin, VP of Business Development, Aerohive.
Last month, Barracuda Networks expanded its channel program to provide the necessary structure and tools to allow resellers to sell and support Barracuda solutions for mutual customers.
