Barracuda Networks, Inc., a leading cybersecurity company delivering comprehensive protection against sophisticated threats for businesses of all sizes, has been honored with the prestigious CRN Product of the Year award for its Barracuda Email Protection solution. The recognition comes as the product was named both the overall Email and Web Security Product of the Year and the top email security offering for channel partner revenue and profit. “This award is a powerful validation of our mission to make cybersecurity simpler, smarter, and more effective for the teams who need it most,” said Neal Bradbury, Chief Product Officer at Barracuda. “Cybercriminals are increasingly leveraging AI to launch faster, more sophisticated attacks, placing immense pressure on organizations already operating with limited resources. Barracuda Email Protection is designed to meet that challenge head-on—delivering robust, intelligent protection that’s easy to deploy and manage, even for teams with minimal security expertise.” Barracuda Email Protection delivers multi-layered defense against a wide range of threats, including phishing, ransomware, business email compromise (BEC), and zero-day exploits. The solution integrates pre- and post-delivery protection powered by advanced artificial intelligence to prevent, detect, and automatically respond to threats. It also includes DMARC reporting and automated incident response, all within a single, unified platform that eliminates the complexity and cost of managing multiple point solutions. As part of the BarracudaONE platform, the solution is managed through an intuitive, centralized dashboard that provides real-time visibility into security posture, active threats, and return on investment metrics. This streamlined approach enables IT teams to monitor and respond to risks efficiently. For managed service providers (MSPs), the platform offers a major advantage: the ability to instantly remediate email threats across all customer environments with a single click—accelerating response times by up to 10 times and significantly reducing exposure to risk. “CRN’s 2025 Products of the Year winners represent a new generation of innovation—products that deliver measurable results for channel partners and their customers,” said Jennifer Follett, Vice President, U.S. Content and Executive Editor at CRN, a brand of The Channel Company. “These awards are based on feedback from solution providers who use these products every day, making their insights invaluable.
