- Barracuda Networks, Inc. (CUDA) provides cybersecurity solutions, including email protection, network security, application protection, data backup and recovery; the company offers cloud-based and appliance-based products such as next-generation firewalls, web application firewalls, backup services, message archiving, load balancing, and managed extended detection and response (XDR) through its AI-powered BarracudaONE platform. Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Campbell, California, Barracuda Networks operates worldwide with offices including Ann Arbor, Michigan, and serves industries such as education, government, financial services, healthcare, and retail through hundreds of thousands of customers and managed service providers (MSPs). The company, owned by KKR following its 2022 acquisition from Thoma Bravo for approximately $4 billion, targets small and midmarket businesses with easy-to-deploy SaaS and on-premises solutions for threat protection, data storage, and disaster recovery.
Barracuda Networks recently expanded its BarracudaONE platform in October 2025 with advanced capabilities for MSPs, including bulk email threat remediation, professional services automation (PSA) integrations for automated billing, and streamlined multi-tenant account management to accelerate threat response and simplify operations. In July 2024, the company signed a Strategic Collaboration Agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to enhance licensing flexibility, procurement simplicity, and deployment options through marketing development funds and ISV workload migration support. Additional recent developments include the May 2025 appointment of Michelle Hodges as Senior Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances to drive partner growth, particularly in Asia-Pacific, and the 2024 acquisition of Fyde to bolster its security portfolio.
