New Capabilities Deliver Adaptive, Context-Aware Protection; Against Emerging Attacks with Unprecedented Accuracy and Speed
Barracuda Networks unveiled powerful next-generation threat detection capabilities fueled by multimodal AI. Barracuda now uniquely delivers adaptive, context-aware protection against emerging attacks with unprecedented accuracy and speed by simultaneously correlating and analyzing diverse text and visual data types - including URLs, documents, images, QR codes, and more.
The new capabilities build on Barracuda's long-standing use of AI and machine learning, with new integration of multimodal AI - technology that synthesizes and interprets numerous data streams in various formats - with its industry-leading machine learning classifiers and purpose-built sandbox engine. This creates a faster, smarter and more adaptive defense layer, empowering Barracuda to detect more than three times as many malicious files at eight times the speed of previous models.
